People do not realise the immense value of utilising spare minutes.

No man can hope to accomplish anything great in this world until he throws his whole soul, flings the force of his whole life, into it. It is not enough simply to have a general desire to accomplish something. There is but one way to do that; and that is, to try to be somebody with all the concentrated energy we can muster.

It is just the little difference between the good and the best that makes the difference between the artist and the artisan. It is just the little touches after the average man would quit that makes the master's fame.

Ambition is the incentive that makes purpose GREAT and ACHIEVEMENT greater!

Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.

You have not found your place until all your faculties are roused, and your whole nature consents and approves of the work you are doing.

How true it is that, if we are cheerful and contented, all nature smiles, the air seems more balmy, the sky clearer, the earth has a brighter green... the flowers are more fragrant... and the sun, moon, and stars all appear more beautiful, and seem to rejoice with us.
