Every great person is always being helped by everybody; for their gift is to get good out of all things and all persons.

I have known great things and wonderful persons, and I have known homage.

Great things in business are never done by one person. They're done by a team of people.

It is always the adventurers who do great things, not the sovereigns of great empires.

Trying hard and being a good person didn't always mean good things would happen to you. But it did mean that others might try on your behalf.

Great things come out of being hungry and cold. Once you're pampered, you get lazy.
