“Every act you have ever performed since the day you were born was performed because you wanted something”

“No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself, or to get all the credit for doing it”

“The man who acquires the ability to take full possession of his own mind may take possession of anything else to which he is justly entitled”

“I believe that the true road to preeminent success in any line is to make yourself master of that line”

“Whatever I engage in, I must push inordinately”

“Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!”
