Napoleon Hill
Wisdom consists in knowing what not to want as well as what to want.
Napoleon Hill
You can't change where you started, but you can change the direction you are going. It's not what you are going to do, but it's what you are doing now that counts.

Napoleon Hill
Lack of persistence is one of the major causes of failure. Moreover, experience with thousands of people has proved that lack of persistence is a weakness common to the majority of men. It is a weakness which may be overcome with effort.
Napoleon Hill
You are the sum total of your dominating or most prominent thoughts.
