To Heed & Ponder

  • Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.

  • Adversity draws men together and produces beauty and harmony in life's relationships, just as the cold of winter produces ice-flowers on the window-panes, which vanish with the warmth.

  • Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it.

  • You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

  • Leadership at one time meant muscles; today it means getting along with people.

  • There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.

  • A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.

  • Interdependence is and ought to be as much the ideal of man as self-sufficiency. Man is a social being.

  • A 'No' uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble.

  • Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

  • To believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest.

  • It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.

  • Fear has its use but cowardice has none.
