"It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary."
"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."
"Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm."
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."
"All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope."
