My success was not based so much on any great intelligence but on great common sense.

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

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

Silence is one of the great arts of conversation.

There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord, but few of us are willing to do little things.

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.

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

Great minds discuss ideas average minds discuss events small minds discuss people.

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

I believe in the fundamental truth of all great religions of the world.
