Quotes from Pearl S. Buck


Pearl S. Buck was a Pulitzer-winning American writer. She was also the first American woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. Her Pulitzer-winning novel, The Good Earth, stayed on the
bestseller list for months. It also sold nearly two million copies, and was translated into thirty languages.


Here are some of her famous quotes:

1. "All things are possible until they are proved impossible - and even the impossible may only be so, as of now. "

2. "Every great mistake has a halfway moment, a split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied."

3. “I don't wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work. ”

4. "The secret of joy in work is contained in one word - excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it. "

5. "The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible - and achieve it, generation after generation."
