Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

You mustn't confuse a single failure with a final defeat.

You have to fail in order to practice being brave.

In quietness the soul expands.

Admire as much as you can, most people don't admire enough.

Find the thing you do well and do it again and again for the rest of your life.

It is not enough to know your craft — you have to have feeling.

If you want to look good in front of thousands, you have to outwork thousands in front of nobody.

One shouldn't just hope to be treated well: one must insist on it.

Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say.

Enthusiasm is the great hill-climber.

Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.
