When thinking won't cure fear, action will.

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

No one who does good work will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come.

If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done.

Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.

The average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work. The world takes off its hat to those who put in more than 50% of their capacity, and stands on its head for those few and far between souls who devote 100%.

When you fear something, learn as much about it as you can. Knowledge conquers fear.

Fear of serious injury cannot alone justify suppression of free speech and assembly. Men feared witches and burned women. It is the function of speech to free men from the bondage of irrational fears.

To make a contented slave it is necessary to make a thoughtless one. It is necessary to darken the moral and mental vision and, as far as possible, to annihilate the power of reason.

Revenge and retaliation always perpetuate the cycle of anger, fear and violence.

Drag your thoughts away from your troubles… by the ears, by the heels, or any other way you can manage it.

You must try to observe yourself more and more objectively, to look at everything in yourself as though another person.

If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes.

He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears.

I do not fix problems. I fix my thinking. Then problems fix themselves.
