“When a man feels throbbing within him the power to do what he undertakes as well as it can possibly be done, this is happiness, this is success.”

He can who thinks he can, and he can’t who thinks he can’t.

Just make up your mind at the very outset that your work is going to stand for quality… that you are going to stamp a superior quality upon everything that goes out of your hands, that whatever you do shall bear the hallmark of excellence.

How can I develop myself into the grandest possible manhood?

A good system shortens the road to the goal.

Man becomes a slave to his constantly repeated acts. What he at first chooses, at last compels.

The man who has not learned the secret of taking the drudgery out of his task by flinging his whole soul into it, has not learned the first principles of success or happiness.

The beginning of a habit is like an invisible thread, but every time we repeat the act we strengthen the strand, add to it another filament, until it becomes a great cable and binds us irrevocably thought and act.

A strong, successful man is not the victim of his environment. He creates favorable conditions. His own inherent force and energy compel things to turn out as he desires.

We lend power to the things we fear!

Poverty often hides her charms under an ugly mask; yet thousands have been forced into greatness by their very struggle to keep the wolf from the door.

Most men fail, not through lack of education or agreeable personal qualities, but from lack of dogged determination, from lack of dauntless will.

It is what we do easily and what we like to do that we do well.

Real happiness is so simple that most people do not recognize it. It is derived from the simplest, the quietest, the most unpretentious things in the world.

Your expectations opens or closes the doors of your supply, If you expect grand things, and work honestly for them, they will come to you, your supply will correspond with your expectation.

The successful men of today are men of one overmastering idea, one unwavering aim, men of single and intense purpose.

You will find the whole world will change to you when you change your attitude toward it.

I’m not at the point where I’d feel safe in a house alone. I would be really scared. I’m the kind of person that when I get up to go use the bathroom I have this big long hallway, and I just know someone’s going to jump out and get me.

How would you feel, if I told you I loved you? It’s just something that I want to do.

I feel really blessed because of where I come from.

I definitely feel like people in the South are a little more raw. Our whole swag, the way we talk, When I go to the East Coast, people automatically know I’m not from there.

An idea is inevitably a coordination. It is a coming together of something that is separate or disorganized or incomplete. With an idea you begin to feel into the nature of that incompleteness.

I always feel how necessary you are to me. But when you are absent, I become still more sensible of it and look around in vain for that satisfaction which you alone can bestow.

Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn’t people feel as free to delight in whatever sunlight remains to them?

Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.
