Thomas Carlyle

It can be a hero either who successes or who succumbs but never who leaves the combat.

If you sow the seed with faith and you take care it with perseverance, it will only be a time question to reap its fruits.

It's useless lamenting for the time which we are living, the only thing we can do is to try improving them.

So as to dispel a doubt, whatever it is, it's necessary an action.

Never the man must lament about the time that he is living, it's useless, on the contrary, he has the power to improve them.

Those who can't keep their thought to themselves, will be incapable to do big things.

There is always a place on the top for the brave and hard-working man.

How many things there are in a good laugh, it is the key with which is figured out a whole man.

A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats people who are or possess less than him.

To talk is the art to stifle and break the thought.

    I assume that these quotations were originally in English, but I didn't look for them. It would be interesting to compare what you wrote with those originals.

  2. I tried to write the first sentence in a gender-neutral, is it possible?

  3. I assume that these quotations were originally in English, of course, If I am interested in any special quote then I look for it on the Internet, but actually what's enough for me is just the natural English.
    Sometimes original quotes are rewritten and improved its style without changing the author's name and the result sounds better but the main idea the same. I have examples of this. Thanks for all.

  4. gender-neutral options:
    One can be a hero who either succeeds or succumbs but never one who leaves the combat.

    Whoever succeeds or succumbs can be a hero, but not the one who leaves the combat.

    Both the one who succeeds and the one who succumbs can be heroes, but it is not so with the one who leaves the combat.
