"Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country."

"The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life."

"Comparison is the thief of joy."

"The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything."

"A man who has never gone to school may steal a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad."

"Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young."

"Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground."

"With self-discipline most anything is possible."

"In this country we have no place for hyphenated Americans."

"It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed."
