Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer to your goal.

To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.

Never explain — your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success.

God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars.

The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today.

Do your work with your whole heart, and you will succeed — there's so little competition.

He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words.

Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.
