They do not easily rise in the world whose talents are depressed by poverty.

There is no poverty where there is character, and no wealth or honour where character is missing

So many people who desire poverty get it quickly, but those who desire wealth never have it.

It is not what you know that counts; it’s how you use what you know.

He who has no shame before the world has no fear before God.

You are all you have to offer the world. Know yourself, love yourself and be yourself.
