Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for.

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

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

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

A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.

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

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

Every happening, great and small, is a parable whereby God speaks to us, and the art of life is to get the message.

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

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