Freedom from effort in the present merely means that there has been effort stored up in the past.

He that seeketh findeth.

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. In this life we get nothing save by effort.

Let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.

Remember that the faith that moves mountains always carries a pick.

Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment. Full effort is full victory.

The bitter and the sweet come from the outside, the hard from within, from one's own efforts.

There has never yet been a man in our history who led a life of ease whose name is worth remembering.

To him that knocketh it shall be opened.

We must find a way, or we will make one.
