“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”

“There's an angel that's watching right over you
All your trials have not been in vain
Won't you lift your head up to the starry night
Finding strength in the things that remain.”

“If you have assumed a character beyond your strength, you have both played a poor figure in that, and neglected one that is within your powers.”

“I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.”

“Sometimes you don't realize your own strength
Until you come face to face with
Your greatest weaknesses.”

“Within your heart is where you find your true power, not in your mind - because the heart knows what the mind can only dream about.”

“Love and respect a woman. Look to her not only for comfort, but for strength and inspiration and the doubling of your intellectual and moral powers. Blot out from your mind any idea of superiority; you have none.”

“You must read, you must persevere, you must sit up nights, you must inquire, and exert the utmost power of your mind. If one way does not lead to the desired meaning, take another; if obstacles arise, then still another; until, if your strength holds out, you will find that clear which at first looked dark.”

“And for the first time in my life, I saw something new reflected in the eyes that saw me. Respect. It taught me a very valuable lesson. That dreams have power only over your own mind. But with money you can have power over the minds of others”

“Have a purpose in life, and having it, throw into your work such strength of mind and muscle as God has given you.”
