“To ease another’s heartache is to forget one’s own.”

“The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.”

“I am slow to learn and slow to forget that which I have learned. My mind is like a piece of steel, very hard to scratch any thing on it and almost impossible after you get it there to rub it out.”

“Every man's happiness is his own responsibility.”

“Your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other”

“You have to do your own growing no matter how tall your grandfather was.”

“Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.”
