Miss a meal if you have to, but don't miss a book


  1. Miss a meal if you have to, but don't miss a book.
  2. Money will only make you more of what you already are
  3. Definiteness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement.
  4. There are no failures; just experiences and your reactions to them.
  5. There are two ways of exerting one's strength; one is pushing down, the other is pulling up.
  6. A goal is a dream with a deadline.
  7. The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence.
  8. Do not be afraid of mistakes, providing you do not make the same one twice.
  9. Life without risk is not worth living.
  10. You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.

THE VALUE OF A SMILE AT CHRISTMAS



  • It costs nothing, but creates much.
  • It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give.
  • It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever,
  • None are so rich they can get along without it, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.
  • It creates happiness in the home, fosters goodwill in a business, and is the countersign of friends.
  • It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature’s best antidote fee trouble.
  • Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.
  • And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying some of our salespeople should be too tired to give you a smile, may we ask you to leave one of yours?
  • For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to give!
