“Character is the result of two things: mental attitude and the way we spend our time.”

“If you work for a man, in heavens name work for him! If he pays you wages that supply you your bread and butter, work for him speak well of him, think well of him, stand by him and stand by the institution he represents. I think if I worked for a man I would work for him. I would not work for him a part of the time, and the rest of the time work against him. I would give an undivided service or none. If put to the pinch, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness.”

“Pray that success will not come any faster than you are able to endure it.”

“Thinking is hard work. That's why there are so few people doing it.”

“We cannot get to where we dream of being tomorrow unless we change our thinking today.”

“Envy blinds men and makes it impossible for them to think clearly.”

“It is the last lesson of modern science, that the highest simplicity of structure is produced, not by few elements, but by the highest complexity.”

“Reason must approach nature in order to be taught by it. It must not, however, do so in the character of a pupil who listens to everything that the teacher chooses to say, but of an appointed judge who compels the witness to answer questions which he has himself formulated.”

“I knew nothing but shadows and I thought them to be real.”
