A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.
Men do not differ much about what things they will call evils; they differ enormously about what evils they will call excusable.
What’s considered to be true is fought over. Individuals search for truth but groups search for consensus—and society is the largest group. So the biggest problem we run into is this: What society wants for you is not always what’s good for you.
Whatever we expect with confidence becomes our own self-fulfilling prophecy.
“If you steal from one author, it’s plagiarism; if you steal from many, it’s research.”
To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven.
