The duty of helping one's self in the highest sense involves the helping of one's neighbors.
Samuel SmilesOpportunities ... fall in the way of every man who is resolved to take advantage of them.
Samuel SmilesIt's not enough to have a dream, Unless you're willing to pursue it. It's not enough to know what's right, Unless you're strong enough to do it. It's not enough to learn the truth, Unless you also learn to live it. It's not enough to reach for love, Unless you care enough to give it Men who are resolved to find a way for themselves will always find opportunities enough; and if they do not find them, they will make them.
Samuel SmilesThe great and good do no die even in this world. Embalmed in books, their spirits walk abroad. The book is a living voice. It is an intellect to which one still listens.
