“ We are all just a little bit mad.”
“ The greatest danger in life is not to take the adventure.” “ Difficulties are just things to overcome.” “ There is no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing.” “ I am not a great man, but I am a great explorer.” “ Difficulties are just things to overcome, after all.” “ I am not a great man, but I am a man who has done great things.” “ By endurance we conquer.” “ There is no merit in being a hero.” “ We had seen God in His splendors, heard the text that Nature renders.” “ I would rather be a man of action than a man of words.” “ I am not a great man, but I am a great leader.” “ Optimism is true moral courage.” “ The worst of the storm is over.” |
