I was taught to strive not because there were any guarantees of success but because the act of striving is in itself the only way to keep faith with life.

The formula for success is perseverance plus faith.

I was in Europe and it was at this stage that I fell in love with Americans in uniform. And I continue to have that love affair.

Like a sunflower, always turn toward the Light.

Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us.

A persons daily act of perseverance equals success.
