More quotes by Napoleon Hill
More gold has been mined from the thoughts of men than has been taken from the earth.
Napoleon Hill
Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything.
Napoleon Hill
One of the most essential yet the hardest truths that I have had to learn is that every person should be his own hardest task-master.
Napoleon Hill
Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win - essential to success.
Napoleon Hill
A person's acts are always in harmony with the dominating thoughts of his or her mind.
Napoleon Hill
Faith is the eternal elixir which gives life, power and action to the impulse of thought! Faith is the starting point of all accumulation of riches! Faith is the basis of all miracles and all mysteries which cannot be analyzed by the rules of science! Faith is the only known antidote for failure!
Napoleon Hill
I realize the dominating thoughts of my mind will eventually reproduce themselves in outward, physical action, and gradually transform themselves into physical reality.
Napoleon Hill

Napoleon Hill
A man is as big as the measure of his thinking.
Napoleon Hill
Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man, but sooner or later the man who wins is the one who thinks he can.
Napoleon Hill
Most of us go through life as failures, because we are waiting for the 'time to be right' to start doing something worthwhile. Do not wait. The time will never be 'just right.' Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
Napoleon Hill
Anything acquired without effort, and without cost is generally unappreciated.
Napoleon Hill
Before us lie two paths - honesty and dishonesty. The shortsighted embark on the dishonest path the wise on the honest. For the wise know the truth in helping others we help ourselves and in hurting others we hurt ourselves. Character overshadows money, and trust rises above fame. Honesty is still the best policy.
Napoleon Hill
Do not EXPECT troubles as they have a tendency not to disappoint.
Napoleon Hill
Success requires no explanations. Failure permits no alibis.
Napoleon Hill
If you are ready for the secret, you already possess one half of it,therefore, you will readily recognize the other half the moment it reaches your mind.
Napoleon Hill
Indecision is the seedling of fear.
Napoleon Hill
If the thing you wish to do is right, and YOU BELIEVE IN IT, go ahead and do it! Put your dreams across, and never mind what 'they' say if you meet with temporary defeat, for 'they' perhaps, do not know that every failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent success.
Napoleon Hill
Moral courage further demands that you assume the responsibility for your own acts.
Napoleon Hill
Positive mental attitude is the right mental attitude in all circumstances. Success attracts more success while failure attracts more failure.
