Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
The reward of a thing well done is to have done it.
We inhereit from our ancestors gifts so often taken for granted... Each of us contains within... this inheritance of soul. We are links between the ages, containing past and present expectations, sacred memories and future promise.
It is not enough to aim; you must hit.
Love truth, and pardon error.
I take it that what all men are really after is some form or perhaps only some formula of peace.
We rarely think people have good sense unless they agree with us.
