8 Quotes from Og Mandino's epic book:  Greatest Salesman in the World | WhyAnnieArmen.com

6.  "I will act now.  Only ACTION determines my value in the market place and to multiply my value, I will multiply my actions. ... When the lion is hungry he eats.  When the eagle has thirst, he drinks. Lest they act, both will perish.  ... I thirst for happiness and peace of mind.  Lest I act I will perish in a life of failure, misery, and sleepless nights.  Success will not wait.  If I delay she will become betrothed to another and lost to me forever. ... I will act now."

7.  "I am here for a PURPOSE and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply ALL my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy."

"Oh Creator of all things, help me.  For this day I go out into the world naked and alone, and without your hand to guide me I will wander far from the path which leads to success and happiness.  ...  You have taught the lion and the eagle how to hunt and prosper with teeth and claw.  Teach me how to hunt with words and prosper with love so that I may be a lion among men and an eagle in the market place. ... I am a small and a lonely grape clutching the vine yet thou hast made me different from all others.  Verily, there must be a special place for me.  Guide me.  Help me.  Show me the way.  Let me become all You planned for me when my seed was planted and selected by You to sprout in the vineyard of the world.  Help this humble salesman.  Guide me, God."
