Whatever You Do, Do It Ardently.

I Think It Is Conceded That I Generally Do Pretty Big Things As A Manager, Am Audacious In My Outlays And Risks, Give Much For Little Money, And Make My Shows Worthy The Support Of The Moral And Refined Classes.

Every Man Should Make His Son Or Daughter Learn Some Useful Trade Or Profession, So That In These Days Of Changing Fortunes Of Being Rich Today And Poor Tomorrow They May Have Something Tangible To Fall Back Upon. This Provision Might Save Many Persons From Misery, Who By Some Unexpected Turn Of Fortune Have Lost All Their Means.

There Is No Such Thing In The World As Luck. There Never Was A Man Who Could Go Out In The Morning And Find A Purse Full Of Gold In The Street To-day, And Another To-morrow, And So On, Day After Day: He May Do So Once In His Life; But So Far As Mere Luck Is Concerned, He Is As Liable To Lose It As To Find It.

In Fact, As A General Thing, Money-getters Are The Benefactors Of Our Race.

Let Your Motto Then Always Be 'excelsior', For By Living Up To It There Is No Such Word As Fail.
