If you are really great, you will let others discover this fact from your actions.
A resourceful person will always make opportunity fit his or her needs.
First you fuel the desire, then the desire will fuel you.
Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness.
No man has a chance to enjoy permanent success until he begins to look in a mirror for the real cause of all his mistakes.
Live each day as if it were your last, and you’ll develop a keen respect for opportunity.
To become successful you must be a person of action. Merely to "know" is not sufficient. It is necessary both to know and do.
Your mental attitude is the most dependable key to your personality.
You are searching for the magic key that will unlock the door to the source of power; and yet you have the key in your own hands, and you may use it the moment you learn to control your thoughts.
No man ever achieved worth-while success who did not, at one time or other, find himself with at least one foot hanging well over the brink of failure.
Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting.
The jack-of-all-trades seldom is good at any. Concentrate all of your efforts on one definite chief aim.
You can always become the person you would have liked to be.
If you do a job another's way, he or she must take the responsibility. If you do it your way, you must take the responsibility.
