Every man has some peculiar train of thought which he falls back upon when he is alone. This, to a great degree, moulds the man. – Dugald Stewart
There is no going back. Why bind
Your swift pace with a phantom fetter?
Forget the good old days behind
Go on – and make the new ones better! – Ted Olsen

External things and opportunities so abound in American life that, instead of nurturing the true sources of happiness, we tend to make it a direct aim. So we end in looking for happiness in possession of the external – in money, a good time, somebody to lean on, and so on. We are impatient, hurried and fretful because we do not find happiness when we look for it. – John Dewey
All worthwhile men have good thoughts, good ideas and good intentions—but precious few of them ever translate those into action. – John Hancock Field
My message to you is: Be courageous! I have lived a long time. I have seen history repeat itself again and again. I have seen many depressions in business. Always America has come out stronger and more prosperous. Be as brave as your fathers before you. Have faith! Go forward. – Thomas A. Edison – last public message
