Hold yourself to a higher standard than anyone else expects... - Henry Ward Beecher

"‎Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself. Never pity yourself. Be a hard master to yourself-and be lenient to everybody else."

"Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith."

"It is not the going out of port, but the coming in, that determines the success of a voyage."

"We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started."

"All words are pegs to hang ideas on."
