“Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.”

Important principles may, and must, be inflexible.

A house divided against itself cannot stand.

The best thing about the future is that it only comes one day at a time.

Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

I will prepare and some day my chance will come.

I destroy my enemies when I make them my friends.

I walk slowly, but I never walk backward.
