Keep	 away	 from	 people	 who	 belittle	 your	 ambitions.	 Small	 people	 always	 do
that,	but	the	really	great	make	you	feel	that	you,	too,	can	become	great.

         —Mark	Twain,	author	and	humorist

Setting	 an	 example	 is	 not	 the	 main	 means	 of	 influencing	 others;	 it	 is	 the	 only
means.

         —Albert	Einstein,	developer	of	the	theory	of	relativity

If	 a	 man	 lives	 his	 life	 to	 himself	 and	 has	 no	 regard	 for	 humanity	 he	 will	 be	 the
most	 miserable	 man	 on	 earth.	 All	 the	 money	 he	 can	 get	 will	 not	 help	 him	 to
forget	his	discontent.	To	hide	one’s	self	from	the	world	and	live	alone,	secluded
from	 one’s	 fellow	 men	 like	 a	 hermit,	 will	 make	 a	 man’s	 nature	 sullen	 and
wretched.

         —John	D.	Rockefeller,	industrialist,	cofounder	of	Standard	Oil	Co.,	and	philanthropist	

You	 are	 in	 control	 of	 your	 priorities—you	 can	 erase	 old	 priorities	 and	 define
new	priorities	at	will.

         —Isaiah	Hankel,	author	and	speaker
