Friendship, like credit, is highest when it is not used. - Elbert Hubbard

"Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway."

"A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success."

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

"I would rather be able to appreciate things I cannot have than to have things I am not able to appreciate."

"There is no failure except in no longer trying."
