Norman Vincent Peale

“Change your thoughts and you change your world.”

“Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.”

“It's always too early to quit.”

“Never say anything to hurt anyone. Moreover...refrain from double talk, from shrewd and canny remarks that are designed to advance our interests at someone's disadvantage. We are to turn our back upon evil, and in every way possible, do good, help people and bring blessings into their lives.”

“Part of the happiness of life consists not in fighting battles, but in avoiding them.  A masterly retreat is in itself a victory.”
