Good character is property. It is the noblest of all possessions.

Self-control is only courage under another form.

It is energy - the central element of which is will - that produces the miracle that is enthusiasm in all ages. Everywhere it is what is called force of character and the sustaining power of all great action

The career of a great man remains an enduring monument of human energy. The man dies and disappears, but his thoughts and acts survive and leave an indelible stamp upon his race.

Opportunities ... fall in the way of every man who is resolved to take advantage of them.

Where there is a will there is a way.

Hope... is the companion of power, and the mother of success; for who so hopes has within him the gift of miracles.
