Quotes

  • Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things. As the truth of arithmetic and geometry does not lie in the clouds scattered around on high, nor in the vapors floating about overhead, but in the plain and simple principles of those sciences, which every capacity may grasp, so the nature of everything is best understood by the fewest possible principles. - Isaac Newton
  • The good news is that every time you deliberately do something different that moves you in the direction of your goals, your brain will begin to take notice and bring that new action and attitude into your reality. - Jen Sincero
  • The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had means, time, influence and educational advantages; the question is what he will do with the things he has. The moment a young man ceases to dream or to bemoan his lack of opportunities and resolutely looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the corner-stone of a solid and honorable success. - Hamilton Wright Mabie
