“Winning friends begins with friendliness.”

“You can't win an argument. You can't because if you lose it, you lose it; and if you win it, you lose it.”

“Don't be afraid of enemies who attack you. Be afraid of the friends who flatter you.”

“You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.”

“When the friendly jailer gave Socrates the poison cup to drink, the jailer said: "Try tobear lightly what needs must be." Socrates did. He faced death with a calmness andresignation that touched the hem of divinity.”

“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!”

“Life is bigger than processes and overflows and dwarfs them.”
