“True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be.”

“The test of courage comes when we are in the minority. The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority.”

“Nothing is so strong as gentleness. Nothing is so gentle as real strength.”

“Nothing is so strong as gentleness, and nothing is so gentle as true strength.”

“At best Americans give but a limited attention to history. Too much happens too rapidly, and before we can evaluate it, or exhaust its meaning or pleasure, there is something new to concern us.

“Adversity is only yet another means to remind us of 'How Truly Awsome We All Are'!”

“Let us remember, too, that greatness is not always a matter of the scale of one’s life, but of the quality of one’s life. True greatness is not always tied to the scope of our tasks, but to the quality of how we carry out our tasks whatever they are. In that attitude, let us give our time, ourselves, and our talents to the things that really matter now, things which will still matter a thousand years from now.”
