“It is best to act with confidence, no matter how little right you have to it.”

“You can't make yourself feel positive, but you can choose how to act, and if you choose right, it builds your confidence.”

“Leadership is a matter of having people look at you and gain confidence, seeing how you react. If you're in control, they're in control. ”

“No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having a dog makes you rich.”

“No matter how much you think you know a person—no matter how pretty they act, or how popular they seem, you can never know what their lives are really like.”

“Don’t just compare yourself to the best, compare yourself to the average man and also to yourself when you started out. Compare yourself to the best so you have a goal of what to surpass, compare yourself to the average man so you gain confidence in your abilities, and compare yourself to where you were so you can appreciate how far you’ve come—and gauge how far you have to go to be the best and how long it will take.”
