Self Discipline
|
One of the great tragedies we witness almost daily is the tragedy of men of high aim and low achievement. Their motives are noble. Their proclaimed ambition is praiseworthy. Their capacity is great. But their discipline is weak. They succumb to indolence. Appetite robs them of will.

Optimism
|
I'm an optimist...If you dwell on the negative, it will hurt you, depress you, and even destroy you. If you work on the positive and dwell on it and seek to bring it to pass, it will make you lighter and brighter, younger and even more vigorous. That's my feeling, and that's my program.

Blind Faith
|
I think the Lord expects us to think...that which comes easily departs easily. That which comes of struggle remains.

Contention
|
We seldom get into trouble when we speak softly. It is only when we raise our voices that sparks fly and tiny molehills become great mountains of contention.
