Whatever you think you can do or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, grace and power in it.

Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.

You are aware of only one unrest;
Oh, never learn to know the other!
Two souls, alas, are dwelling in my breast,
And one is striving to forsake its brother.
Unto the world in grossly loving zest,
With clinging tendrils, one adheres;
The other rises forcibly in quest
Of rarefied ancestral spheres.
If there be spirits in the air
That hold their sway between the earth and sky,
Descend out of the golden vapors there
And sweep me into iridescent life.
Oh, came a magic cloak into my hands
To carry me to distant lands,
I should not trade it for the choicest gown,
Nor for the cloak and garments of the crown.

Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.

The formation of one's character ought to be everyone's chief aim.

It is in human nature to relax, when not compelled by personal advantage or disadvantage.
