Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other thing.

Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent. Its sale is proof of utility, and utility is success.

If you want to soar like an eagle in life, you can't be flocking with the turkeys.

Do your best at every job. Don't sleep! Success generates more success so be hungry for it. Hire good people with a passion for excellence.

Fill the brain with high thoughts, highest ideals, place them day and night before you, and out of that will come great work.

Of course I would have preferred success; but failing in that, I have no regrets for having rejected all advice to the contrary, and resolutely made the struggle.
