The one who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The one who walks alone is likely to find himself in places no one has ever been before.
Be happy, but never satisfied.
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.

The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.

There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.
Find a purpose to serve, not a lifestyle to live.
