William Arthur Ward Quotations | Page 2

Enthusiasm is the match that lights the candle of achievement.

America needs fewer men obsessed with erecting fences of hate, suspicion and name calling.

We can learn much from wise words, little from wisecracks, and less from wise guys.

Optimism is a seed sown in the soil of faith; pessimism is a seed hoarded in the vault of doubt.

Do more than dream. Work.

The more patient we are, the more understanding we become.

Wise are they who have learned these truths: Trouble is temporary. Time is tonic. Tribulation is a test tube.

The optimist lives on the peninsula of infinite possibilities; the pessimist is stranded on the island of perpetual indecision.

We are more than what we do... much more than what we accomplish... far more than what we possess.

A cloudy day is no match for a sunny disposition.
