One always measures friendships by how they show up in bad weather.

Never be bored, and you will never be boring.

Think enthusiastically about everything; but especially about your job. If you do, you'll put a torch of glory in your life. If you love your job with enthusiasm, you'll shake it to pieces. You'll love it into greatness, you'll upgrade it, you'll fill it with prestige and power.

Faith is an excitement and an enthusiasm: it is a condition of intellectual magnificence to which we must cling as to a treasure, and not squander.

When you are enthusiastic about what you do, you feel this positive energy. It’s very simple.

Enthusiasm is that kindling spark which marks the difference between the leaders in every activity and the laggards who put in just enough to get by.

The great accomplishments of man have resulted from the transmission of ideas of enthusiasm.

I lay it down as a fact that if all men knew what others say of them, there would not be four friends in the world.

A man's friendships are one of the best measures of his worth.

So long as you are secure you will count many friends; if your life becomes clouded you will be alone.

Keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.
