“If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work in the world has been done against seeming impossibilities.”
“Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves.”
“the best possible way to prepare for tomorrow is to concentrate with all your intelligence, all your enthusiasm, on doing today's work superbly today. That is the only possible way you can prepare for the future.”
“Live an active life among people who are doing worthwhile things, keep eyes and ears and mind and heart open to absorb truth, and then tell of the things you know, as if you know them. The world will listen, for the world loves nothing so much as real life.”
“That is the way Emerson said it. But here is the way a poet -the late Douglas Mallochsaidit:If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill.Be a scrub in the valley-but beThe best little scrub by the side of the rill;Be a bush, if you can't be a tree.If you can't be a bush, be a bit of the grass.If you can't be a muskie, then just be a bass-But the liveliest bass in the lake!We can't all be captains, we've got to be crew.There's something for all of us here.There's big work to do and there's lesser to doAnd the task we must do is the near.If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail,If you can't be the sun, be a star;It isn't by the size that you win or you fail-Be the best of whatever you are!”
“When I asked him -Mr.Henry Ford- if he ever worried, he replied: "No. I believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me. With God in charge, I believe that every-thing will work out for the best in the end.So what is there to worry about?”
“Do you remember the things you were worrying about a year ago? How did they work out? Didn't you waste a lot of fruitless energy on account of most of them? Didn't most of them turn out all right after all?”
