When you finish a thing you ought to be able to say to yourself: 'There, I am willing to stand for that piece of work. It is not pretty well done; it is done as well as I can do it; done to a complete finish. I will stand for that. I am willing to be judged by it.'

We cannot rise higher than our thought of ourselves.

Work, love and play are the great balance wheels of man's being.

Whatever our creed, we feel that no good deed can by any possibility go unrewarded, no evil deed unpunished.

The influential man is the successful man, whether he be rich or poor.

A strong, successful man is not the victim of his environment. He creates favorable conditions. His own inherent force and energy compel things to turn out as he desires.

Doing common things uncommonly well.
