Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.

None of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone.

No great man ever complains of want of opportunity.

Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character.

Money, which represents the prose of life, and which is hardly spoken of in parlors without an apology, is, in its effects and laws, as beautiful as roses.

Make yourself necessary to somebody. Do not make life hard to any.

Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you.

Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.

Let not a man guard his dignity, but let his dignity guard him.

Insist on yourself; never imitate... Every great man is unique.

If I have lost confidence in myself, I have the universe against me.

I pack my trunk, embrace my friends, embark on the sea, and at last wake up in Naples, and there beside me is the Stern Fact, the Sad Self, unrelenting, identical, that I fled...

I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.

I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new.

He has not learned the lesson of life who does not every day surmount a fear.

Good manners are made up of petty sacrifices.

God enters by a private door into every individual.

Give all to love; obey thy heart.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could.
