“It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor.”
“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” “The bravest sight in the world is to see a great man struggling against adversity.” “A good character, when established, is not easily overthrown.” “We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.” |
