» More quotes about: Expectation

Many a man has finally succeeded only because he has failed after repeated efforts. If he had never met defeat he would never have known any great victory.

You cannot measure a man by his failures. You must know what use he makes of them. What did they mean to him. What did he get out of them.

» More quotes about: Failure

There is no failure for the man who realizes his power, who never knows when he is beaten; there is no failure for the determined endeavor; the unconquerable will. There is no failure for the man who gets up every time he falls, who rebounds like a rubber

» More quotes about: Failure

Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.

» More quotes about: Fear | Boldness

The best thing about giving of ourselves is that what we get is always better than what we give. The reaction is greater than the action.

» More quotes about: Forgiveness

No young man starting in life could have better capital than plenty of friends. They will strengthen his credit, support him in every great effort, and make him what, unaided, he could never be. Friends of the right sort will help him more - to be happy a

The beginning of a habit is like an invisible thread, but every time we repeat the act we strengthen the strand, add to it another filament, until it becomes a great cable and binds us irrevocably thought and act.
