Try not to become a man of success but a man of value.

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.

Inspiration and genius--one and the same.

To find what you seek in the road of life, the best proverb of all is that which says:
"Leave no stone unturned."

Don't waste your life in doubts and fears: spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour's duties will be the best preparation for the hours or ages that follow it.

It is not work that kills men, it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more on a man than he can bear. But worry is rust upon the blade. It is not movement that destroys the machinery, but friction.

Be just, and fear not. Let all the ends thou aim’st at be they country’s, Thy God’s and truth’s.

Never let life's hardships disturb you ... no one can avoid problems, not even saints or sages.

Ask yourself this question: "Will this matter a year from now?"
