Quotes

Let him who would enjoy a good future waste none of his present.
Keep in mind that neither success nor failure is ever final.
Property may be destroyed and money may lose it's purchasing power; but, character, health, knowledge, and good judgement will always be in demand under all conditions.
Experience has taught me that there is one chief reason why some people succeed and others fail. The difference is not one of knowing, but of doing. The successful man is not so superior in ability as in action. So far as success can be reduced to a formula, it consists of this: doing what you know you should do.

Success
If things go wrong, don't go with them.
