Richard Petty

How shall we learn to know ourselves? By reflection? Never; but only through action. Strive to do thy duty; then you shall know what is in thee.

Johann von Goethe

Hardly ever can a youth transferred to the society of his betters unlearn the nasality and other vices of speech bred in him by the associations of his growing years.

The merchants offer their wares as eagerly to him as to the veriest swell, but he simply cannot buy the right things.

William James

Let honesty and industry be thy constant companions, and spend one penny less than thy clear gains; then shall thy pocket begin to thrive; creditors will not insult, nor want oppress, nor hungerness bite, nor nakedness freeze thee

Benjamin Franklin

I find that a man is as old as his work. If his work keeps him from moving forward, he will look forward with the work.
