Napoleon Hill
"Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.""Fears are nothing more than a state of mind.""Ideas are the beginning points of all fortunes.""You might well remember that nothing can bring you success but yourself.""First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.""Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.""You give before you get.""Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.""Edison failed 10,000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times.""No alibi will save you from accepting the responsibility.""There are no limitations to the mind except those we acknowledge.""When your desires are strong enough you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.""Opportunity often comes disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.""You can do it if you believe you can!""If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.""Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.""The ladder of success is never crowded at the top.""The world has the habit of making room for the man whose actions show that he knows where he is going.""Happiness is found in doing, not merely possessing.""A goal is a dream with a deadline.""All achievements, all earned riches, have their beginning in an idea.""No man can succeed in a line of endeavor which he does not like.""Here is one quality that one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it.""Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit.""Don't wait. The time will never be just right."
