What They Are Saying

If at first you don't succeed, shouldn't you try doing it like your wife told you to?

Every man's work, whether it be literature or music or pictures or architecture or anything else, is always a portrait of himself. Samuel Butler 

"I can't do it" never yet accomplished anything: "I will try" has accomplished wonders. George P. Burnham

Hard things are put in our way, not to stop us, but to call out our courage and strength. Anonymous

There is in every true woman's heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity; 
but which kindles up, and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity. Washington Irving

The aim of an argument or discussion should not be victory, but progress. Joseph Joubert 

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. 
We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, 
but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit. Aristotle
