“Set a guard, O Lord, over my
Mouth;
Keep watch over the door of
My lips.”
Psalm 141:3
Cast out envy …
You can have all that you want,
And you need not envy any man what he has.
Above all things see to it that you do not hold
Malice or enmity toward any one…
To do so cuts you off from the mind whose
Treasures you seek to make your own.
Lay aside all narrow personal ambition and
Determine to seek the highest good.
- Wallace D. Wattles
It takes a little courage,
And a little self-control.
And some grim determination,
If you want to reach the goal.
It takes a deal of striving,
And a firm and stern-set chin.
No matter what the battle,
If you really want to win.
There's no easy path to glory,
There's no road to fame.
Life, however we may view it,
Is no simple parlor game;
But its prizes call for fighting,
For endurance and for grit;
For a rugged disposition and
Don’t know when to quit.

He who conquers himself
Is the mightiest warrior.
- Confucius
