Example is not the main thing in influencing others, it is the only thing. Albert Schweitzer quotes I have ever deemed it more honorable and more profitable, too, to set a good example than to follow a bad one. Thomas Jefferson quotes A good example is the best sermon. Benjamin Franklin quotes Setting an example is not the main means of influencing another, it is the only means. Albert Einstein quotes It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done. Samuel Smiles quotes I am absolutely convinced that no wealth in the world can help humanity forward, even in the hands of the most devoted worker. The example of great and pure individuals is the only thing that can lead us to noble thoughts and deeds. Money only appeals to selfishness and irresistibly invites abuse. Can anyone imagine Moses, Jesus or Ghandi armed with the money-bags of Carnegie? Albert Einstein quotes The best example of democracy I can recall is five wolves sitting down to dinner with one sheep. Anonymous quotes As it is our nature to be more moved by hope than fear, the example of one we see abundantly rewarded cheers and encourages us far more than the slights of many who have not been well treated disquiets us. Anonymous quotes Follow the example of Beth Graham, the envy of all the girls in my summer camp. It seemed every guy at camp wanted to be Beth's boyfriend. None of the girls could figure it out. Beth wasn't exactly the supermodel type: She had braces and a prominent nose, a flat chest, and big thighs. It took me an entire summer of watching Beth closely to figure out why all the guys liked her so much: She had incredible self-confidence. She didn't seem the least bit insecure about her decidedly average looks. In fact, she seemed proud. Because she was so comfortable with herself, others felt comfortable around her...So instead of beating yourself up because your hips and thighs are too full, try not to focus too much on the way you look. If Beth Graham...could do it, so can you! Anonymous quotes |
