Echoes

Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.

The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.

The beginning is the most important part of the work.

Take a step forward, lads. It will be easier that way.

The beginnings of all things are small.

It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.

Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.

We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.

It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is because we do not dare that things are difficult.

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.

You may never know what results come of your actions. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.

I am a slow walker, but I never walk back.

Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.

Great deeds are usually wrought at great risks.

The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything.

Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.

We have a given problem to solve. If we undertake the solution, there is, of course, always danger that we may not solve it aright; but to refuse to undertake the solution simply renders it certain that we cannot possibly solve it aright.

It seems to be a law of nature, inflexible and inexorable, that those who will not risk cannot win.

The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.

Slow and steady wins the race.

He that can have patience can have what he will.

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

For if he who resolveth bravely oftentimes falleth short, how shall it be with him who resolveth rarely or feebly?

I will either find a way, or make one.

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.
