Opportunities? They are all around us ... There is power lying latent everywhere waiting for the observant eye to discover it.

We win half the battle when we make up our minds to take the world as we find it including the thorns.

If you do not feel yourself growing in your work and your life broadening and deepening, if your task is not a perpetual tonic to you, you have not found your place.

Worry clogs the brain and paralyzes the thought. A troubled brain can not think clearly, vigorously, locally.

People who have accomplished work worthwhile have had a very high sense of the way to do things. They have not been content with mediocrity. They have not confined themselves to the beaten tracks; they have never been satisfied to do things just as others so them, but always a little better. They always pushed things that came to their hands a little higher up, this little farther on, that counts in the quality of life's work. It is constant effort to be first-class in everything one attempts that conquers the heights of excellence.

To think you can creates the force that can.

There is no medicine like hope.
