When once a republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is either useless or a new evil.

A man who does not think and plan long ahead will find trouble right at his door.

Effective people are not problem-minded; they're opportunity minded. They feed opportunities and starve problems.

Don't wish it was easier; wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems; wish for more skills. Don't wish for less challenge; wish for more wisdom.

The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.
