“The only business of the head in the world is to bow a ceaseless obeisance to the heart.”

Think like a wise man but communicate in the language of the people.

The innocent and the beautiful have no enemy but time.

In dreams begin responsibilitiy.

Where there is nothing, there is God.

Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking.

Beloved, let your eyes half close, and your heart beat Over my heart, and your hair fall over my breast, Drowning love’s lonely hour in deep twilight of rest.

I have observed dreams and visions very carefully, and am now certain that the imagination has some way of lighting on the truth that the reason has not, and that its commandments, delivered when the body is still and the reason silent, are the most binding we can ever know.

An intellectual hate is the worst.

The visible world is no longer a reality and the unseen world no longer a dream.

Myself I must remake.

Everything that’s lovely is But a brief, dreamy kind of delight.

Any fool can fight a winning battle, but it needs character to fight a losing one, and that should inspire us; which reminds me that I dreamed the other night that I was being hanged, but was the life and soul of the party.

Joy is of the will which labours, which overcomes obstacles, which knows triumph.

Choose your companions from the best; Who draws a bucket with the rest soon topples down the hill.

What man does not understand, he fears; and what he fears, he tends to destroy.

I cast my heart into my rhymes, That you, in the dim coming times, May know how my heart went with them After the red-rose-bordered hem.

Nobody but you is responsible for your life.

Talent is a wonderful thing, but it won’t carry a quitter.

You can’t build a reputation on what you’re going to do. It’s simple, fantasize, rehearse, then go out into the world and DO IT!

You want to be extra rigorous about making the best possible thing you can. Find everything that’s wrong with it and fix it.

Work while others are wishing.

No great thing is created suddenly. There must be time. Give your best and always be kind.

Business is a spiritual pursuit. Your business will not grow unless you grow as a person.

Procrastination is the bad habit of putting of until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.
