“When you’re interested in something, you do it only when it’s convenient. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results.”

“Nothing is easier than saying words. Nothing is harder than living them, day after day. What you promise today must be renewed and re-decided tomorrow and each day that stretches out before you.”

“The heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upward in the night.”
