Enthusiasm is the mother of effort, and without it nothing great was ever achieved.

One sees great things from the valley only small things from the peak.

The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be.

Silence is one of the great arts of conversation.

All great and beautiful work has come of first gazing without shrinking into the darkness.

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream not only plan, but also believe.

All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy, and great things in that which is small.

Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.

Unless you choose to do great things with it, it makes no difference how much you are rewarded, or how much power you have.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
