An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.
William Bernbach
Chance happens to all, but to turn chance to account is the gift of few.
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
Obstacles are necessary for success because in selling, as in all careers of importance, victory comes only after many struggles and countless defeats. Yet each struggle, each defeat, sharpens your skills and strengths, your courage and your endurance, your ability and your confidence and thus each obstacle is a comrade-in-arms forcing you to become better… or quit. Each rebuff is an opportunity to move forward; turn away from them, avoid them, and you throw away your future.
Og Mandino
A woman who has no way of expressing herself and of realizing herself as a full human being has nothing else to turn to but the owning of material things
Enriqueta Longauex-Vasquez
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
Leo F. Buscaglia
Culture is an instrument wielded by professors to manufacture professors, who when their turn comes will manufacture professors
Simone Weil
Genius is no respecter of time, trouble, money or persons, the four things around which human affairs turn most persistently.
Samuel Butler
Turn your wounds into wisdom.
Oprah Winfrey
Age is getting to know all the ways the world turns, so that if you cannot turn the world the way you want, you can at least, get out of the way so you won't get run over
Miriam Makeba
Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.
Og Mandino
The tendency to turn human judgments into divine commands makes religion one of the most dangerous forces in the world.
Georgia Harkness
I came into the world a Jew, and although I did not live my life entirely as a Jew, I think it is fitting that I should leave as a Jew. I don't want to turn my back on a great and noble heritage.
Felix Frankfurter
There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.
Douglas Everett
