One can have no smaller or greater mastery than mastery of oneself.

Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work.

Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

I hope that I may always desire more than I can accomplish.

Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell 'em, 'Certainly I can!' Then get busy and find out how to do it.

Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day of your life.

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.

I don't like that man. I must get to know him better.

As you start to walk out on the way, the way appears.

If you can't make it good, at least make it look good.

Success is steady progress toward one's personal goals

At least with me, the match starts much, much earlier than the actual match.

When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all.

The destination of the seeker… depends on the road he takes.

If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.

It is amazing how much can be accomplished if no one cares who gets the credit.

You can't make souffle rise twice.

All my life I've had one dream, to achieve my many goals.

Thought, backed by strong desire, has a tendency to transmute itself into its physical equivalent.

Genius is eternal patience.
