— Galatians 6:9

-— John Dewey
“It is not so much where my motivation comes from but rather how it manages to survive.”
— Louise Bourgeois
“The ability to evaluate yourself and your performance objectively is critical to your relationships with others and will have an enormous impact upon the level of
success you achieve during your lifetime. Unless you can honestly evaluate your strengths and weaknesses, how can you ever expect to improve your performance? You must
determine where you are before you can develop a plan to get you where you would like to be. If you were an independent, dispassionate observer, what advice would you
give to yourself to improve your skills, your work habits, your interaction with others, and your contribution to the organization? Honesty about yourself is the first
step toward self-improvement.”
— Napoleon Hill
“Daniel Burnham, the turn-of-the-century architect and civic planner whose plan for the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair had an enormous influence on contemporary civic
design, was quoted as saying, “Make no little plans.” He knew that to achieve great things we must have grand ideas. If you can imagine it, you can create it. And if
you can create in your imagination the job that you would like to have, it is possible to create it in the real world.”
— Napoleon Hill
“The life of Helen Keller is an outstanding example of the triumph of the human spirit over a physical handicap. Even today, decades after her death, her life stands
as a beacon of hope for those who must constantly struggle just to perform routine tasks that most of us take for granted. Whenever you feel fate has been unkind to
you, all you must do is look around you and you will begin to appreciate how fortunate you are. Make sure your life’s plan includes giving something back to the
community without expecting anything in return. Giving time and effort, not just money, reinforces your connections to your community, provides you with concrete proof
of the effectiveness of deliberate action, and reminds you of the inspiring power of determination in human endeavor.”
— Napoleon Hill
