It is not he who has spoken a hundred words aloud who has won; it is he who has perhaps spoken only one word.”

“Remember, it is not enough to be hit or insulted to be harmed, you must believe that you are being harmed.

Which is why it is essential that we not respond impulsively to impressions; take a moment before reacting, and you will find it easier to maintain control.”
