- Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
- Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities... because it is the quality which guarantees all others.
- If the human race wishes to have a prolonged and indefinite period of material prosperity, they have only got to behave in a peaceful and helpful way toward one another.
- A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
- Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.
- I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
- Let our advance worrying become advance thinking and planning.
- A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
- All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
- I never worry about action, but only about inaction.
- Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.
- It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations... The quotations, when engraved upon the memory, give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more.
- I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
- If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time-a tremendous whack.
- Never, never, never give up.
