The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon, but only to hold a man's foot long enough to enable him to put the other somewhat higher.

The only medicine for suffering, crime, and all other woes of mankind, is wisdom. Teach a man to read and write, and you have put into his hands the great keys of the wisdom box. But it is quite another thing to open the box.

In this industry, there are only two ways up the ladder. Rung by rung or claw your way to the top. It's sure been tough on my nails.

The only question which any wise man can ask himself, and which any honest man will ask himself, is whether a doctrine is true or false.

The more flesh you show, the higher up the ladder you go.

Just put one foot in front of the other.
