There is no greatness where there is no simplicity, goodness and truth.

All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.

All the historic precedents, the soaring graphs, the staggering statistics - these measure size more than substance. And the largeness and greatness of our nation would be almost a mockery - without a matching greatness of heart and largeness of vision as we look out upon the world.

The qualities of a great man are vision, integrity, courage, understanding, the power of articulation, and profundity of character.

Faith is the mightiest force that man has at his command. It impels human beings to greatness in thought and word and deed.

Great people are not affected by each puff of wind that blows ill. Like great ships, they sail serenely on, in a calm sea or a great tempest.
