"I seek constantly to improve my manners..." - Quote by Og Mandino

“To do anything truly worth doing, I must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in with gusto and scramble through as well as I can.”

“The height of my goals will not hold me in awe, though I may stumble often before they are reached.”

“Wealth, position, fame, and even elusive happiness will be mine, eventually, if I determine to render more and better service, each day, than I am being paid to render. Those who reach the top are the ones who are not content with.”

“The wise man will want to be ever with him who is better than himself.”

“Getting and becoming are siamese twins. If you want more than you have, you have to become more than you are.”

“You have competition every day because you set such high standards for yourself that you have to go out every day and live up to that.”

“An agreeable manner may set off handsome features, but can never alter plain ones.”

“A vain man can never be altogether rude. Desirous as he is of pleasing, he fashions his manners after those of others.”

“Manners are the happy ways of doing things; each once a stroke of genius or of love, now repeated and hardened into usage.”
