• Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal
• Whether you believe you can do a thing or not, you're right
• Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them
• A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large
• Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently
• Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs
• Quality means doing it right when no one is looking
• You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do
• Speculation is only a word covering the making of money out of the manipulation of prices, instead of supplying goods and services.
• One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his greatest surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't
• As we advance in life we learn the limits of our abilities
• Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success
• Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it
