To walk around with an ego is a bad thing. To have confidence in yourself is a great thing.

Character, in great and little things, means carrying through what you feel able to do.

The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.

That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can achieve it as well.

To be conscious that you are ignorant of the facts is a great step to knowledge.

Character may be manifested in the great moments, but it is made in the small ones.

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

Death comes to all, but great achievements build a monument which shall endure until the sun grows cold.

Only passions, great passions can elevate the soul to great things.
