Christian Bovee

Half our fears are baseless the other half discreditable.

It is our relation to circumstances that determines their influence over us. The same wind that carries one vessel into port may blow another off shore.

Self-distrust is the cause of most of our failures ... they are the weakest however strong who have no faith in themselves or their own powers.

Example has more followers than reason.

When all else is lost the future still remains.

Contentment is not happiness. An oyster may be contented. Happiness is compounded of richer elements.

The use we make of our fortune determines as to its sufficiency. A little is enough if used wisely and too much is not enough if expended foolishly.

A failure establishes only this that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.

Self-distrust is the cause of most of our failures. They are the weakest however strong who have no faith in themselves or their own powers.

It is only error in judgement to make a mistake but it shows infirmity of character to adhere to it when discovered.

The method of the enterprising is to plan with audacity and execute with vigor.

Doubt whom you will but never yourself.

Self distrust is the cause of most of our failures. In the assurance of strength there is strength and they are the weakest however strong who have no faith in themselves or their own powers.

It is only an error in judgement to make a mistake but it shows infirmity of character to adhere to it when discovered.

Successful minds work like a gimlet to a single point.

When all else is lost, the future still remains.
