Fate leads the willing and drags along those who hang back.

The future...something which everyone reaches at the rate of sixty minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is.

Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

Often the prudent, far from making their destinies, succumb to them; it is destiny which makes them prudent.

Every man takes the limits of his own vision for the limits of the world.
