Napoleon Hill quotes from "Think and Grow Rich" Chapter 1 - THE MAN WHO “THOUGHT” HIS WAY INTO PARTNERSHIP WITH THOMAS A. EDISON
- TRULY, “thoughts are things,” and powerful things at that, when they are mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a BURNING DESIRE for their translation into riches, or other material objects.
- More gold has been mined from the brains of men than has ever been taken from the earth.
- Before success comes in any man’s life, he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat, and, perhaps, some failure. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to QUIT. That is exactly what the majority of men do.
- Failure is a trickster with a keen sense of irony and cunning. It takes great delight in tripping one when success is almost within reach.
- Keep on keeping on, no matter how hard the going may be
- One sound idea is all that one needs to achieve success.
- When you begin to THINK AND GROW RICH, you will observe that riches begin with a state of mind, with definiteness of purpose, with little or no hard work.
- One of the main weaknesses of mankind is the average man’s familiarity with the word “impossible.” He knows all the rules which will NOT work. He knows all the things which CANNOT be done.
- Success comes to those who become SUCCESS CONSCIOUS.
- Failure comes to those who indifferently allow themselves to become FAILURE CONSCIOUS.
