More quotes by Vernon Howard

Vernon Howard

Vernon Howard
You need only choose ... then keep choosing as many times as necessary. That is all you need do. And it is certainly something you can do. Then as you continue to choose, everything is yours.
Vernon Howard
The need to impress others causes half the world's woes.
Vernon Howard
