Reach a clear conception of what you want to do, and can do; be sure that this is something noble in itself—then hammer away with all your might, and keep hammering.

Remember that modesty is almost as becoming to a man as to a woman, but that humility has no place in man’s relation to man.

If you are not as good as any other man, it’s your fault.

The world, and all its rewards, are as much yours as anybody’s.

But remember this also: the race is to the swift, and the battle is to the strong, USUALLY.

If you would win the race, be swift; if the battle, be strong.
