Men who are
resolved to find a way for themselves will always find
opportunities enough; and if they do not find them, they
will make them.
-- Samuel Smiles
1812-1904, Scottish Author
Welcome every
problem as an opportunity. Each moment is the great
challenge, the best thing that ever happened to you . The
more difficult the problem, the greater the challenge in
working it out.
-- Grace Speare
There is only
one optimist. He has been here since man has been on this
earth, and that is ''man'' himself. If we hadn't had such a
magnificent optimism to carry us through all these things,
we wouldn't be here. We have survived it on our optimism.
-- Edward Steichen
1879-1973, Luxembourg
Photographer
Each problem
has hidden in it an opportunity so powerful that it
literally dwarfs the problem. The greatest success stories
were created by people who recognized a problem and turned
it into an opportunity.
-- Joseph Sugarman
American Businessman

I make the
most of all that comes and the least of all that goes.
-- Sara Teasdale
1884-1933, American Poet
People think
that at the top there isn't much room. They tend to think of
it as an Everest. My message is that there is tons of room
at the top.
-- Margaret Thatcher
1925-, British Stateswoman,
Prime Minister (1979-90)
Born often
under another sky, placed in the middle of an always moving
scene, himself driven by the irresistible torrent which
draws all about him, the American has no time to tie himself
to anything, he grows accustomed only to change, and ends by
regarding it as the natural state of man. He feels the need
of it, more he loves it; for the instability; instead of
meaning disaster to him, seems to give birth only to
miracles all about him.
-- Alexis De Tocqueville
1805-1859, French Social
Philosopher
