You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot in front of the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That’s how I’ve done it. There’s no other way.

To be candid, some people have given positive thinking a bad name. I can’t stand to hear some gung-ho individual say that with positive thinking you can just do ‘anything.’ If you think about that one for a moment, you recognize the absurdity of it.

Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconcious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character

An obstacle is often a stepping stone.

Don’t underestimate yourself or your possibilities.

There is no need to be afraid of having faults, because knowing we have them can help us to improve.

The harder I work, the luckier I get. When you have momentum going, play the momentum.

We become what we think about most of the time, and that’s the strangest secret.

When a true genius appears in this world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.

Just remember, you can’t climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets.

Some people do really find fault like there’s a reward for it.

You have to care about how good you are and how good you feel, but not about how good people think you are or how good people think you look.
