"Almost every man wastes part of his life attempting to display qualities which he does not possess"

"The man is happiest who lives from day to day and asks no more, garnering the simple goodness of life"

"There is more to life than increasing its speed"

"Great effort from great motives is the best definition of a happy life"

"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts; therefore guard accordingly"

"It is a useless life that is not consecrated to a great ideal. It is like a stone wasted on the field without becoming a part of any edifice"

"There are two good things in life - freedom of thought and freedom of action"

"The best things in life are unexpected - because there were no expectations"

"Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit"

"Life yields only to the conqueror. Never accept what can be gained by giving in. You will be living off stolen goods, and your muscles will atrophy"

"You are the architect of your own destiny; you are the master of your own fate; you are behind the steering wheel of your own life. There are no limitations to what you can do, have, or be except the limitations you place on yourself by your own thinking"
