“I'm as happy a man as any in the world, for the whole world seems to smile upon me!”
Samuel Smiles“The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honor. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved.”
Samuel Smiles“Life will always be to a large extent what we ourselves make it.”
Samuel Smiles“Wisdom and understanding can only become the possession of individual men by travelling the old road of observation, attention, perseverance, and industry.”
Samuel Smiles“The very greatest things - great thoughts, discoveries, inventions - have usually been nurtured in hardship, often pondered over in sorrow, and at length established with difficulty.”
Samuel Smiles“Admiration of great men, living or dead, naturally evokes imitation of them in a greater or less degree.”
Samuel Smiles“Enthusiasm... the sustaining power of all great action.”
Samuel Smiles“Lost wealth may be replaced by industry, lost knowledge by study, lost health by temperance or medicine, but lost time is gone forever.”
Samuel Smiles“The experience gathered from books, though often valuable, is but the nature of learning; whereas the experience gained from actual life is one of the nature of wisdom.”
Samuel Smiles“Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others.”
