Keep fear out of your child's mind, as you would keep poison out of his body; for fear is the deadliest of mental poisons.

No man can be ideally successful until he has found his place. Like a locomotive he is strong on the track, but weak anywhere else.

To many a man, and sometimes to a youth, there comes the opportunity to choose between honorable competence and tainted wealth. The young man who starts out to be poor and honorable, holds in his hand one of the strongest elements of success.

We do not know what we can bear until we are put to the test. Many a delicate mother, who thought that she could not survive the death of her children, has lived to bury her husband and the last one of a large family, and in addition to all this has seen her home and last dollar swept away; yet she has had the courage to bear it all and to go on as before. When the need comes, there is a power deep within us that answers the call.

There is no investment you can make which will pay you so well as the effort to scatter sunshine and good cheer through your establishment.

There is no failure for the man who realizes his power, who never knows when he is beaten; there is no failure for the determined endeavor; the unconquerable will.

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