The only real failure in life is not to be true to the best one knows.

To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.

The best way to keep one's word is not to give it.

Since we live in this world, we have to do our best for this world.

Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.

Clever men are good, but they are not the best.

I am as bad as the worst, but, thank God, I am as good as the best.

I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.

I do the very best I know how - the very best I can and I mean to keep on doing so until the end.

This is the precept by which I have lived: Prepare for the worst expect the best and take what comes.
