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

Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.

Many great actions are committed in small struggles.

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

Believe deep down in your heart that you're destined to do great things.

A great part of courage is the courage of having done the thing before.

A constant struggle, a ceaseless battle to bring success from inhospitable surroundings, is the price of all great achievements.

If you listen to your fears, you will die never knowing what a great person you might have been.

There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief.

Suffering becomes beautiful when anyone bears great calamities with cheerfulness, not through insensibility but through greatness of mind.
