When you get before great people you don't talk a lot, you ask questions
Live one day at a time emphasizing ethics rather than rules.
What are the aims which are at the same time duties? They are perfecting of ourselves, the happiness of others.
Fear overrides all rational thinking
He who asks of life nothing but the improvement of his own nature. . . is less liable than anyone else to miss and waste life.
Grasp the subject, the words will follow.
Whoever in debate quotes authority uses not intellect, but memory.
Cheerfulness is full of significance: it suggests good health, a clear conscience, and a soul at peace with all human nature.
Failure can only exist from stagnant perceptions. Everything is a process of learning and if you learn something useful, you have success.
Never neglect an opportunity for improvement.
Eat not to dullness, drink not to elevation.
If you add the value, you will become the brand. Find a way to add more value than anyone else does
The safest principle through life, instead of reforming others, is to set about perfecting yourself.
We are each responsible for all of our experiences.
I always say the minute I stop making mistakes is the minute I stop learning and I've definitely learned a lot.
What you become directly influences what you get.
If you are living out of a sense of obligation you are slave.
We have the freedom to excel or inhibit our potential. You are the grand designer of your thoughts and emotions. At some level or another you are the one who chooses which thoughts to accept and which ones to ignore. That can be a very empower realization.
Life is about becoming a better version of yourself.
First you fuel the desire, then the desire will fuel you.
