What We Sincerely Believe Regarding Ourselves Is

A Great Many People Never Really Discover Themselves Until Ruin Stares Them In The Face. They Do Not Seem To Know How To Bring Out Their Reserves Until They Are Overtaken By An Overwhelming Disaster, Or Until The Sight Of Their Blighted Prospects And Of The Wreck Of Their Homes And Happiness Stirs Them To The Very Center Of Their Beings.... There Is Something In Defeat Which Puts New Determination Into A Man Of Mettle.

If You Want To Enlarge Your Life, You Must First Enlarge Your Thought Of It And Of Yourself.

We Do Not Know What We Can Bear Until We Are Put To The Test. Many A Delicate Mother, Who Thought That She Could Not Survive The Death Of Her Children, Has Lived To Bury Her Husband And The Last One Of A Large Family, And In Addition To All This Has Seen Her Home And Last Dollar Swept Away; Yet She Has Had The Courage To Bear It All And To Go On As Before. When The Need Comes, There Is A Power Deep Within Us That Answers The Call.

If We Get The Good That Belongs To Us Here And Now, We Must Extract The Sweetness Of Each Passing Minute While It Is Ours. That Is The Real Art Of Living In The Today.

The Mill Cannot Grind With The Water That Has Passed.
