“It is better to plan less and do more”

“There is no substitute for hard work”

“Concentration is my motto - first honesty, then industry, then concentration”

“Do anything rather than give yourself to reverie”

“Never be entirely idle; but either be reading, or writing, or praying or meditating or endeavoring something for the public good”

“For anything worth having one must pay the price; and the price is always work, patience, love, self-sacrifice”
