"Your outlook upon life, your estimate of yourself, your estimate of your value are largely colored by your environment. Your whole career will be modified, shaped, molded by your surroundings, by the character of the people with whom you come in contact every day."
"Achievement is not always success, while reputed failure often is. It is honest endeavor, persistent effort to do the best possible under any and all circumstances."
"A constant struggle, a ceaseless battle to bring success from inhospitable surroundings, is the price of all great achievements."
"Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance. It cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours."
"Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony."
"There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow."
