Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life; think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.
Don't count the days, make the days count.
Study as if you were never to master it; as if in fear you were losing it.
The reward for work well done is the opportunity to do more.
