It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

Don’t wait. The time will never be just right.

Kites rise highest against the wind, not with it.

Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.

Let the improvement of yourself keep you so busy that you have no time to criticize others.

Not he who has much is rich, but he who gives much.

We don’t see things the way they are. We see them the way we are.

The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.

Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration, the rest of us just get up and go to work.

Success is most often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable.

All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, then success is sure.

The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.

Let your life lightly dance on the edges of time like dew on the tip of a leaf.

In a gentle way, you can shake the world.

Life is like photography. You need the negatives to develop.

I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took any excuse.

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

Sometimes it takes a good fall to really know where you stand.
