Deliver me from all evildoers that talk nothing but sickness and failure. Grant me the companionship of men who think success and men who work for it. Loan me associates who cheerfully face the problems of a day and try hard to overcome them. Relieve me of all cynics and critics. Give me good health and the strength to be of real service to the world, and I'll get all that's good for me, and will what's left to those who want it.

No task is so humble that it does not offer an outlet for individuality.

Do each daily task the best we can; act as though the eye of opportunity were always upon us.

Wealth flows from energy and ideas.

Conditions are never just right. People who delay action until all factors are favourable do nothing.

That they may have a little peace, even the best dogs are compelled to snarl occasionally.

When ordering lunch, the big executives are just as indecisive as the rest of us.
