God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement.
Marcus Garvey

All you have to do is know where you're going. The answers will come to you of their own accord.
Earl Nightingale

The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company, you own your career!
Earl Nightingale

We all walk in the dark and each of us must learn to turn on his or her own light.
Earl Nightingale

You are, at this moment, standing, right in the middle of your own "acres of diamonds."
Earl Nightingale

Woman is fine for her own satisfaction alone. No man will admire her the more, no woman will like her the better for it. Neatness and fashion are enough for the former, and a something of shabbiness or impropriety will be most endearing to the latter.
Jane Austen

Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.
Jane Austen

Dress is at all times a frivolous distinction, and excessive solicitude about it often destroys its own aim.
Jane Austen

The free world must not prove itself worthy of its own past.
Dwight D. Eisenhower

Don't be afraid to challenge the pros, even in their own backyard.
Colin Powell

Being stuck is a position few of us like. We want something new but cannot let go of the old - old ideas, beliefs, habits, even thoughts. We are out of contact with our own genius. Sometimes we know we are stuck; sometimes we don't. In both cases we have to DO something.
Rush Limbaugh

The truth does not require a majority to prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The truth is its own power. The truth will out. Never forget that.
Rush Limbaugh

But you can't show some far off idyllic conception of behavior if you want the kids to come and see the picture. You've got to show what it's really like, and try to reach them on their own grounds.
James Dean

Take a course in good water and air; and in the eternal youth of Nature you may renew your own. Go quietly, alone; no harm will befall you.
John Muir

I've had ample contact with lawyers, and I'm convinced that the only fortune they ever leave is their own.
Wilson Mizner

I'd rather know a square guy than own a square mile.
Wilson Mizner

The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of our own we have no soul of our own civilization.
Frank Lloyd Wright

I have been black and blue in some spot, somewhere, almost all my life from too intimate contacts with my own furniture.
Frank Lloyd Wright

No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings.
William Blake

The more we have the less we own.
Meister Eckhart
