More quotes by Napoleon Hill
Big pay and little responsibility are circumstances seldom found together.
Napoleon Hill

Napoleon Hill
Most illness begins with a negative mind.
Napoleon Hill
Fortunes gravitate to men whose minds have been prepared to attract them just as surely as water gravitates to the ocean.
