“I’ve learned that every great achievement was once considered impossible”

Keep a note pad and pencil on your bedside table. Million-dollar ideas sometimes strike at 3 A.M.

Remember that the biggest gap in the world is between ‘I should’ and ‘I did.’

Judge your success by the degree that you’re enjoying peace, health, and love.

Be modest. A lot was accomplished before you were born.

Your religion is what you do when the sermon is over.

You can get by on charm for about 15 minutes. After that, you better know something.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.

Spend your life lifting people up, not putting them down.

Remember that just the moment you say, “I give up,” someone else seeing the same situation is saying, “My, what a great opportunity.”

Remember that what’s right isn’t always popular, and what’s popular isn’t always right.

Don’t expect others to listen to your advice and ignore your example.

Remember that almost everything looks better after a good night’s sleep.

Never give up on what you really want to do

Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures.

A friend is someone who knows you and loves you for what you were and who you are, and who also shares your hopes and dreams for who you can become.

Life is slippery. Here, take my hand.

As a general rule, a reputation is built on manner as much as on achievement.

To be busy with material affairs is the best preservative against reflection, fears, doubts, all these things which stand in the way of achievement. I suppose a fellow proposing to cut his throat would experience a sort of relief while occupied in stropping his razor carefully.

To be a great autocrat you must be a great barbarian.

It is not the clear-sighted who rule the world. Great achievements are accomplished in a blessed, warm fog.

If your child marches to a different beat, a different drummer, you might just have to go along with that music. Help them achieve what’s important to them.

We are built to be happy, strong and healthy. I fear not to live. We have everything to live up to our dreams. You have everything to achieve that, and in a very short period of time you can get all the tools to manifest who you want to be.

That which neither weapon nor flame could accomplish will be achieved by a sweet speaking tongue in council.

Happiness is not a tangible thing, it’s a byproduct – a byproduct of achievement.
