The optimist pleasantly ponders how high his kite will fly; the pessimist woefully wonders how soon his kite will fall.

Man, like the bridge, was designed to carry the load of the moment, not the combined weight of a year at once.

The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.

The winner asks, "May I help?" The loser asks, "Do you expect me to do that?"

The more generous we are, the more joyous we become.

Study while others are sleeping; work while others are loafing; prepare while others are playing; and dream while others are wishing.

Do more than dream. Work.
