Teach your child to hold his tongue; he'll learn fast enough to speak.
Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God and nature.
God grant that not only the love of liberty but a thorough knowledge of the rights of man may pervade all the nations of the earth, so that a philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its surface and say: "This is my country."
Man's tongue is soft, and bone doth lack; yet a stroke therewith may break a man's back.

The secret of success is conviction and persistence.
Faced with a mountain, I will not quit. I will keep on striving until I climb over it, find a path through it, tunnel under it, or simply stay and turn it into a gold mine.
Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.
Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never-in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
Abandon the idea that you are ever going to finish. Lose track of the 400 pages and write just one page for each day; it helps. Then, when it gets finished, you are always surprised.
