Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
Personally, I enjoy working about 18 hours a day. Besides the short catnaps I take each day, I average about four to five hours of sleep per night.
If we all did the things we are really capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves....
The three things that are most essential to achievement are common sense, hard work and stick-to-it-iv-ness.....
Many of life's failures are experienced by people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
Results? Why, man, I have gotten lots of results! If I find 10,000 ways something won't work, I haven't failed. I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is often a step forward....
As a cure for worrying, work is far better than whiskey. I always found that, if I began to worry, the best thing I could do was focus upon doing something useful and then work very hard at it. Soon, I would forget what was troubling me.
The thing I lose patience with the most is the clock. Its hands move too fast.
Its obvious that we don't know one millionth of one percent about anything.
