The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything.

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

In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing.

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.

The mind of Caesar. It is the reverse of most men's. It rejoices in committing itself. To us arrive each day a score of challenges; we must say yes or no to decisions that will set off chains of consequences. Some of us deliberate; some of us refuse the decision, which is itself a decision; some of us leap giddily into the decision, setting our jaws and closing our eyes, which is the sort of decision of despair. Caesar embraces decision. It is as though he felt his mind to be operating only when it is interlocking itself with significant consequences. Caesar shrinks from no responsibility. He heaps more and more upon his shoulders.
Thornton WilderTags: responsibility decisiveness
Великое дело, если человек решил что-нибудь для себя! Решил - и ни в какую, хоть лопни, не переменит своего решения. А если переменит, грош ему цена.
