More on Self Discipline
“I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success.”
“I think that self-discipline has to be accompanied by passion.”
“The only question is whether you’re going to do it today or tomorrow. If you keep saying you’re going to do it tomorrow,you’ll never do it. You have to get on it today.”
More on Sacrifice
“A truly nonviolent man would never live to tell the tale of atrocities. He would have laid down his life on the spot in non-violent resistance.”
“This thing of being a hero, about the main thing to it is to know when to die.”
“I cherish my own freedom dearly, but I care even more for your freedom. Too many have died since I went to prison. Too many have suffered for the love of freedom. I owe it to their widows, to their orphans, to their mothers and their fathers, who have grieved and wept for them ..... Not only have I suffered during these long lonely wasted years. I am no less life-loving than you are. But I cannot sell the birthright of the people to be free ....... Only free men can negotiate. Prisoners cannot enter into contracts. Your freedom and mine cannot be separated.”
