The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
Subject:  Life   
Not one prayer or moment of silence for those who have given their lives. And they complain about (falling box office numbers). Stop spitting in the face of Americans and maybe we will go to the movies.

So many fail because they don't get started - they don't go. They don't overcome inertia. They don't begin.

It's amazing what ordinary people can do if they set out without preconceived notions.

Faith is not believing that God can. It is knowing that God will.

Keep on beginning and failing. Each time you fail, start all over gain, and you will grow stronger until have accomplished a purpose - not the one you began with perhaps, but one you'll be glad to remember.

I don't like the sound of all the lists he's making.

Not one prayer or moment of silence for those who have given their lives.

Personal relationships are the fertile soil from which all advancement, all success, all achievement in real life grows.

A corporation's responsibility is to the shareholders, not its retirees and employees. Companies are doing everything they can to get rid of pension plans and they will succeed.

There is no sudden leap into the stratosphere... There is only advancing step by step, slowly and tortuously, up the pyramid towards your goals...

Somewhere there is a map of how it can be done.

Jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty, fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.

You must take the first step. The first steps will take some effort, maybe pain. But after that, everything that has to be done is real-life movement.

You can do what you think you can do and you cannot do what you think you cannot.

Nothing happens by itself... it all will come your way, once you understand that you have to make it come your way, by your own exertions.

You've got to have between 12 and 15 times of your final year's living expenses saved up. If you're spending $100,000 a year now, you should have at least $1.2 million saved up, preferably $1.5 million. If you're living on $300,000 a year, you should have close to $5 million saved up.

There is no sudden leap into the stratosphere. There is only advancing step by step, slowly and tortuously, up the pyramid towards your goals.

The successful people of this world take life as it comes. They just go out and deal with the world as it is.

It looks awfully expedient. Things went down and down and down, and we hung in there with smoothing. Now that we're up, we're conveniently 'resetting' (the assets).
