“It should be remembered also that the outlook from the bottom is not so very bright or encouraging. It has a tendency to kill off ambition. We call it “getting into a rut,” which means that we accept our fate because we form the HABIT of daily routine, a habit that finally becomes so strong we cease to try to throw it off.”

“If you are one of those who believe that hard work and honesty, alone, will bring riches, perish the thought! It is not true!

Riches come, if they come at all, in response to definite demands, based upon the application of definite principles, and not by chance or luck.”

Failure cannot cope with persistence.”
