Self-control is essential to happiness and usefulness. It is the master of all the virtues,and has its root in self-respect. Let a man yield to his impulses and passions, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom. It is the self-discipline of a man that enables him to pursue success with superior diligence and sobriety.Many of the great characters in history illustr...
A Chief Executive officer is not necessarily someone who has had a lot of formal training.So, I doubt moreschooling would help you climb up that ladder of success. Maybe you should try and change your work habits or character. You cannot just sit around in an organization waiting for people to promote you. You have to let people know you are ambitious and waiting for biggera...
I was up the next morning before the October sunrise, and away through the wild and the woodland. The rising of the sun was noble in the cold and warmth of it; peeping down the spread of light, he raised his shoulder heavily over the edge of gray mountain and wavering length of upland. Beneath his gaze the dew-fogs dipped and crept to the hollow places, then stole away in li...
Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples.As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty. There is no exact definition of the word happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons.The key is not wealth or physical well-being, since we find beggars, invalids and so called failures who are extremely happy. Being ...

Never before have the leaders of so many nations come together in a single Assembly.This is a unique event.A unique opportunity. And therefore a unique responsibility.You, ladies and gentlemen, are the leaders towhom the world’s peoples have ...
Once a circle missed a wedge.The circle wanted to be whole，so it went around looking for its missing piece.But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly，it admired the flowers along the way.It chatted with worms.It enjoyed the sunshine.It found lots of different pieces，but none of them fit.So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on s...
What is leadership? Its qualities are difficult to define.But they are not so difficult to identify. Leaders don’t force other people to go along with them.They bring them along. Leaders get commitment fromothers by giving it themselves,by building an environment that encourages creativity, and by operating with honesty and fairness. Leaders demand much of others, but also g...
Now as to the matter of lying. You want to be very careful about lying, otherwise you are nearly sure to get caught, once caught, you can never again be, in the eyes of the pure and the good, what you were before.Many a young person has injured himself permenently throuth a single clumsy and ill-finished lie, the result of carelessness born of incomplete training. Some autho...
It’s great to be here and have a chance to share some of my excitement with you. I got involved with computers at 18.And the computer was a very limited teletype that had to be connected through a phone lineup to a mainframe like computer, but my friends and I became fascinated with understanding what the computer can do,what was the future, and how would it be used. When we...
Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all. The sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. I've heard it in the chillest land, And on the strangest sea; Yet, never,in extremity, It asked a crumb of me. 希望是鸟儿， 在人们心灵...

For me the most interesting thing about a solitary life,and mine has been that for the last twenty years,is that it becomes increasingly rewarding.When I can wake up and watch the sun rise over the ocean, as I domost days, and know that I have an entire day ahead,uninterrupted, in which to write a few pages, take a walk with my dog,lie down in the afternoon for a think (Why ...
A most curious and useful thing to realize is that one never knows the impression one is creating on otherpeople. One may often guess pretty accurately whether it is good, bad, or indifferent — some people render it unnecessary for one to guess, they practically inform one — but that is not what I mean. I mean muchmore than that. I mean that one has one's self no mental ...
It is curious that our own offenses should seem so much less heinous than the offenses of others. I suppose the reason is that we know all the circumstances that have occasioned them and so manage to excuse in ourselves what we cannot excuse in others. We turn our attention away from our own defects, and when we are forced by untoward events to consider them, find it easy to...
Gentlemen of the jury, the best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has, he may lose. It flies away from ...
While popular in the U.S., the April Fool’s Day tradition is even more prevalent in European countries,such as France and Great Britain. Although the roots of the traditional trickings are unclear,the French andthe British both have claims on the origin of the celebration. One theory holds that the first April Fool’s Day was on April 1 of the year when King of France institu...
Liberty is order.Liberty is strength. Look round the world, and admire, as you must, the instructive spectacle. You will see that liberty not only is power and order, but that it is power and order predominant and invincible – that it derides all other sources of strength. And shall the preposterous imagination be fostered, that men bred in liberty – the first of...
You’ve had a problem, you’ve thought about it till you were tired,forgotten it and perhaps slept on it, and then flash!When you weren’t thinking about it suddenly the answer has come to you, as a gift from thegods. Of course all ideas don’t come like that, but the interesting thing is that so many do,particularly the most important ones.They burst into the mind, glowing with...
Ladys First For a long period before the 1960s, women were considered to be the weaker sex,just as Shakespeare said inHamlet:“Frailty, thy name is women.”In contrast, men were regarded the stronger and the dominant sex.In this light man should undertake the duty to adopt a protective attitude toward the so-called weaker sex.This implied that men should help women on and off ...
“What can you tell me about yourself?” This is not an invitation to give your life history.The interviewer is looking for clues about your character, qualifications, ambitions, and motivations.The following is a good example of a positive response.“As a college student, I worked in a clothing store part-time and found that I could sell things easily.The sale was important, b...
