"The old parties are husks, with no real soul within either, divided on artificial lines, boss-ridden and privilege-controlled, each a jumble of incongruous elements, and neither daring to speak out wisely and fearlessly on what should be said on the vital issues of the day."
Politics
"If an American is to amount to anything he must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in his own work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others. He must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can, and accept defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow man a responsibility which is not theirs."
Responsibility
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat."
Success
"It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed."
Success
"Success, the real success, does not depend upon the position you hold but upon how you carry yourself in that position."
Success
"The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people."
Success
"This truth should be kept constantly in mind by every free people desiring to preserve the sanity and poise indispensable to the permanent success of self-government."
Truth & Lies
"I care not what others think of what I do, but I care very much about what I think of what I do. That is character!"
Virtue
"Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft!"
War & Peace
"Nine-tenths of wisdom is being wise in time."
Wisdom
"When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all."
Work
"Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell 'em, 'Certainly I can!' Then get busy and find out how to do it."
Work
"Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing."
Work
"There is quite enough sorrow and shame amd suffering and baseness in real life, and there is no need for meeting it unnecessarily in fiction."
