More quotes by William Arthur Ward
What you believe is more important than what you possess. What you live is more lasting than what you profess. Whom you inspire is more significant than whom you impress.
William Arthur Ward
The experienced mountain climber is not intimidated by a mountain - he is inspired by it.
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

William Arthur Ward
The more generous we are, the more joyous we become. The more cooperative we are, the more valuable we become. The more enthusiastic we are, the more productive we become. The more serving we are, the more prosperous we become.
William Arthur Ward
Forgiveness from others is charity from God, grace from oneself, wisdom.
William Arthur Ward
Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
