The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action.

The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike at him as hard as you can and as often as you can, and keep moving on.

The only difference between success and failure is the ability to take action.

Do the difficult things while they are easy, and do the great things while they are small.

Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.

We can do anything we want to if we stick to it long enough.

You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight.

I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices, and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, word, and thought throughout our lifetime.

More is lost by indecision than wrong decision.

You can’t change how people treat you or what they say about you. All you can do is change how you react to it.

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.

There is a force that somehow pushes us to choose the more difficult path whereby we can transcend the mire and muck into which we are so often born. Despite all that resists the process, we do become better human beings.

But we cannot simply sit and stare at our wounds forever.

We are free up to the point of choice, then the choice controls the chooser.
