Results from Poor Man's College:

A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.: Henry B. Adams
If thy words be too luxuriant, confine them, lest they confine thee. He that thinks he can never speak enough, may easily speak too much. A full tongue and an empty brain are seldom parted.: Francis Quarles (1592 - 1644)
Whatever you are from nature, keep to it; never desert your own line of talent. Be what nature intended you for, and you will succeed; be anything else, and you will be ten thousands times worse than nothing.: Sydney Smith (1771 - 1845)
Talent, lying in the understanding, is often inherited; genius, being the action of reason or imagination, rarely or never.: Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772 - 1834)
A little tact and wise management may often evade resistance, and carry a point, where direct force might be in vain.: Author Unknown
Replying to the tributes paid to him at a testimonial dinner, Herbert Bayard Swope said; "I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure. Try to please everybody.": Author Unknown
Every success is built on the ability to do better than good enough.: Author Unknown
Everyone who achieves success in a great venture, solved each problem as they came to it. They helped themselves. And they were helped through powers known and unknown to them at the time they set out on their voyage. They kept going regardless of the obstacles they met.: Clement Stone
People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in the world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, make them.: George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)
It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done.: Samuel Smiles
