The Universe is one great kindergarten for man. Everything that exists has brought with it its own peculiar lesson.

It is the idle man, not the great worker, who is always complaining that he has no time or opportunity.

Most of us are at war with ourselves, are our own worst enemies. We expect a great deal of ourselves, yet we do not put ourselves in a condition to achieve great things. We are either too indulgent to our bodies, or we are not indulgent enough.

Many a man owes his advancement very largely to his ability to converse well. The ability to interest people in your conversation, to hold them, is a great power.

All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers.

Every man must play the part of his ambition. If you are trying to be a successful man, you must play the part.
