Most people of action are inclined to fatalism and most of thought believe in providence.
|
No one is so old as to think he cannot live one more year.
|
Of all the diversions of life, there is none so proper to fill up its empty spaces as the reading of useful and entertaining authors.
|
Some people swallow the universe like a pill; they travel on through the world, like smiling images pushed from behind.
|
The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.
|
The successful men of action are not sufficiently self-observant to know exactly on what their success depends.
|
Though all afflictions are evils in themselves, yet they are good for us, because they discover to us our disease and tend to our cure.
|
To fail is a natural consequence of trying, To succeed takes time and prolonged effort in the face of unfriendly odds. To think it will be any other way, no matter what you do, is to invite yourself to be hurt and to limit your enthusiasm for trying again.
|
To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.
