More quotes by William Arthur Ward
Christmas is more than a time of music, merriment and mirth it is a season of meditation, mangers and miracles. Christmas is more than a time of carols, cards and candy it is a season of dedication and decision.
William Arthur Ward

The adventure of life is to learn. The purpose of life is to grow. The nature of life is to change. The challenge of life is to overcome. The essence of life is to care. The opportunity of like is to serve. The secret of life is to dare. The spice of life is to befriend. The beauty of life is to give.

Do more than belong: participate. Do more than care: help. Do more than believe: practice. Do more than be fair: be kind. Do more than forgive: forget. Do more than dream: work.
William Arthur Ward

William Arthur Ward
A second-class is a first-class mistake.
William Arthur Ward
To the optimist, obstacles aare challenges, roadblocks are inspirations, and problems are invitations to achievement.
William Arthur Ward
Once trust is tarnished, it is hard to restore it to its original glow.
William Arthur Ward
Greatness is not found in possessions, power, position, or prestige. It is discovered in goodness, humility, service, and character.
William Arthur Ward
For each new morning with its light, For rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, for love and friends... Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
William Arthur Ward
Before you speak, listen.
William Arthur Ward
In life, satisfaction is experienced when activities are brought to a state of completion. Loss of energy and loss of control are functions of incompletion. The result of completing things releases one's ability to create. Prioritize any items that need to be completed, set a completion date, then do it.
William Arthur Ward
We must be silent before we can listen. We must listen before we can learn. We must learn before we can prepare. We must prepare before we can serve. We must serve before we can lead.
William Arthur Ward
