People with great gifts are easy to find, but symmetrical and balanced ones never.

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

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

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

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

Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.

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

Love is the great miracle cure. Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives.

The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.

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