“People demand freedom only when they have no power.”
Tip: press → for another quote, C to copy, S to share.
Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time.
Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.
If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.
The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do without thought of fame. If it comes at all it will come because it is deserved, not because it is sought after.
