We learn something every day, and lots of times it’s that what we learned the day before was wrong.

Think Big and make it happen.

It is true that integrity alone won’t make you a leader, but without integrity you will never be one.

Many people who want to be great aren’t willing to do the work to make it possible!

We are guided by outcomes, not ideology. We have a policy of principled realism, rooted in shared goals, interests, and values. That realism forces us to confront a question facing every leader and nation in this room. It is a question we cannot escape or avoid. We will slide down the path of complacency, numb to the challenges, threats, and even wars that we face. Or do we have enough strength and pride to confront those dangers today, so that our citizens can enjoy peace and prosperity tomorrow?

The young athlete who aspires to greatness, generally speaking, learns a number of things from several different coaches. The first one taught him the fundamentals; the second one instilled discipline in him and taught him more of the techniques that must be mastered to excel.

There is no class so pitiably wretched as that which possesses money and nothing else.

I will work day after day like I did my whole life … I’m not going to change anything.

We simply assume that the way we see things is the way they really are or the way they should be. And our attitudes and behaviors grow out of these assumptions.

Where the willingness is great, the difficulties cannot be great.

What shapes our lives are the questions we ask, refuse to ask, or never think to ask.

Things that matter most must never be at the mercy of things that matter least.

lf you don’t think everyday is a great day, try going without one.

There is nothing so easy but that it becomes difficult when you do it reluctantly.

Motivation gets you going and habit gets you there.

Someone has defined genius as intensity of purpose: the ability todo, the patience to wait. Put these together and you have achievement.
