"Big jobs usually go to the men who prove their ability to outgrow small ones."
"People with great gifts are easy to find, but symmetrical and balanced ones never."
"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
"A man's action is only a picture book of his creed."
"Men's actions are too strong for them. Show me a man who has acted, and who has not been the victim and slave of his action."
"There is a tendency for things to right themselves."
"A man is a god in ruins."
"We do not count a man's years until he has nothing else to count."
"Without ambition one starts nothing. Without work one finishes nothing. The prize will not be sent to you. You have to win it. The man who knows how will always have a job. The man who also knows why will always be his boss. As to methods there may be a million and then some, but principles are few. The man who grasps principles can successfully select his own methods. The man who tries methods, ignoring principles, is sure to have trouble."
"The intellectual man requires a fine bait; the sots are easily amused. But everybody is drugged with his own frenzy, and the pageant marches at all hours, with music and banner and badge."
