A champion is afraid of losing. Everyone else is afraid of winning.

Without initiative, leaders are simply workers in leadership positions.

That's the way I got along in life. I don't ever remember being particularly jealous of anybody, because I figured if I can't do it myself, I don't deserve to get it.

Going to a party, for me, is as much a learning experience as, you know, sitting in a lecture.

There is no great genius without some touch of madness.

We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.

I love the institution of marriage, and I love my marriage.

The power of one, if fearless and focused, is formidable, but the power of many working together is better.

Physical strength can never permanently withstand the impact of spiritual force.

I think in terms of the day's resolutions, not the years'.

If a fellow isn't thankful for what he's got, he isn't likely to be thankful for what he's going to get.

Over and over I marvel at the blessings of my life: Each year has grown better than the last.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.

Success is peace of mind which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best you are capable of becoming.

People who enjoy meetings should not be in charge of anything.

It is easier to live through someone else than to become complete yourself.

Marriage is the most natural state of man, and... the state in which you will find solid happiness.
