Power Gravitates To The Man Who Knows

A Lobster, When Left High And Dry Among The Rock, Does Not Have The Sense Enough To Work His Way Back To The Sea, But Waits For The Sea To Come To Him. If It Does Not Come, He Remains Where He Is And Dies, Although The Slightest Effort Would Enable Him To Reach The Waves, Which Are Perhaps Within A Yard Of Him. The World Is Full Of Human Lobsters; People Stranded On The Rocks Of Indecision And Procrastination, Who, Instead Of Putting Forth Their Own Energies, Are Waiting For Some Grand Billow Of Good Fortune To Set Them Afloat.

Thrift Means That You Should Always Have The Best You Can Possibly Afford, When The Thing Has Any Reference To Your Physical And Mental Health, To Your Growth In Efficiency And Power.

The Greatest Trouble With Most Of Us Is That Our Demands Upon Ourselves Are So Feeble, The Call Upon The Great Within Of Us So Weak And Intermittent That It Makes No Impression Upon The Creative Energies; It Lacks The Force That Transmutes Desires Into Realities.

Obstacles Are Like Wild Animals. They Are Cowards But They Will Bluff You If They Can. If They See You Are Afraid Of Them... They Are Liable To Spring Upon You; But If You Look Them Squarely In The Eye, They Will Slink Out Of Sight.

The Best Thing About Giving Of Ourselves Is That What We Get Is Always Better Than What We Give. The Reaction Is Greater Than The Action.
