Marshall Field & Company

16.

Floyd, Ray

You don't have to do anything to prove that you are worthy of existing.
Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi

31.
Our goal, simply stated, is to be the best.
Robinson, James H.

32.
To enjoy the things we ought and to hate the things we ought has the greatest bearing on excellence of character.

Garcia, Jerry

I made a resolve then that I was going to amount to something if I could. And no hours, nor amount of labor, nor amount of money would deter me from giving the best that there was in me. And I have done that ever since, and I win by it. I know.
Sanders, Col. Harland

Do more than you're supposed to do and you can have or be or do anything you want.
Sands, Bill

And if it's good enough, it will last as long as there are human beings.
Hemingway, Ernest
