“Don't aim at success — the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long run — in the long run, I say — success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of it.”

Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl

“Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.”

Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill

“Patriotism is merely a religion--love of country, worship of country, devotion to the country's flag and honor and welfare.”

As Regards Patriotism • Mark Twain

“One can run away from anything but oneself.”

Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig

“No one wants advice, only corroboration.”

The Winter of Our Discontent • John Steinbeck
