Fanatic is often the name given to people of action by people who are lazy.

There is little more powerful than when truth joins action.

Ambition is not what a man would do, but what a man does, for ambition without action is fantasy.

It is better to have a fair intellect that is well used, than a powerful one that is idle.

Most people do not actually know how to think for themselves, and unfortunately that prevents them from even knowing it.

It has been my experience that if we make the effort to listen to people when we meet them, and work to get to know them a little, it is then easy to find something likeable in practically anyone.
