The best day, today;
The best play, work;
The greatest puzzle, life;
The greatest thought, God;
The greatest mystery, death;
The best work, work you like;
The greatest mistake, giving up;
The most ridiculous asset, pride;
The greatest need, common sense;
The most dangerous person, a liar;
The best town, where you succeed;
The most expensive indulgence, hate;
The greatest invention of the devil, war;
The most disagreeable person, the complainer;
The greatest secret of production, saving waste;
The best teacher, one who makes you want to learn;
The biggest fool, the boy who will not go to school;
The greatest deceiver, the one who deceives himself;
The worst bankrupt, the soul who has lost enthusiasm;
The cheapest, easiest and most stupid thing to do, finding fault;
The cleverest man, the one who always does what he thinks is right;
The greatest bore, one who keeps talking after he has made his point;
The greatest comfort, the knowledge that you have done your work well;
The most agreeable companion, the one that would not have you any
different than you are;
The meanest feeling of which any human being is capable, feeling
envious of an other's success;
The greatest thing, bar none, in the world, love…love for family, home,
friends, neighbors and for the and in which we enjoy our freedom.
- Earl Nightingale
