“I derived my strength from daily mass and communion.”

You carry on no matter what are the obstacles. You simply refuse to give up – and, when the going gets tough, you get tougher. And, you win.

The strength of the group is the strength of the leaders.

Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect.

Nobody is hurt. Hurt is in the mind. If you can walk, you can run.

Offensively, you do what you do best and you do it again and again. Defensively, you attack your opponent’s strength.

The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. That’s real glory. That’s the essence of it.

If you really want something , you can have it if you’re willing to pay the price. And the price means you have to work better and harder than the next guy.

If you can’t get emotional about what you believe in your heart, you’re in the wrong business.

Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him. It’s something we call heart power. Once a man has made this commitment, nothing will stop him short of success.

Those who have invested the most are the last to surrender.

One comes to believe whatever one repeats to oneself sufficiently often, whether the statement be true of false. It comes to be the dominating thought in one’s mind.

Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.

It is time for us all to stand and cheer for the doer, the achiever – the one who recognizes the challenges and does something about it.

Dictionary is the only place that success comes before work. Hard work is the price we must pay for success. I think you can accomplish anything if you’re willing to pay the price.

Most important of all, to be successful in life demands that a man make a personal commitment to excellence and to victory, even though the ultimate victory can never be completely won.

If you get into the endzone, act as if you’ve been there before.

Character is the most precious gift of education.

True education consists in the cultivation of the heart.

Education should ennable the students, but instead it is debasing them. Instead of shaping the young into diamonds, it is turning them into coals. It is not bringing transformation in them, It is not bestowing wisdom.

Nowhere at present is there such a measureless loathing of their country by educated people as in America.

The objective of education should be impressed on the children’s minds. The academic education of today is shallow and useless because it has no value orientation.

Unless knowledge is transformed into wisdom, and wisdom is expressed in character; education is a wasteful process.

Teachers must learn how to teach they need only to be taught more effective ways of teaching.

Education has to be welcomed as a Spiritual Practice for the establishment of Peace in the individual heart as well as in society including the human commonwealth.
