You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in

which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which

you think you cannot do.- Eleanor Roosevelt -

If your success is not on your own terms, if it looks good to the world

but does not feel good in your heart, it is not success at all.

- Anna Quindlen - You learn as much from those who have failed as from those who have

succeeded.

- David McCullough - Success is counted sweetest by those

who ne'er succeed.

- Emily Dickinson - I owe my success to having listened respectfully to the very best advice, and then going away and doing the

exact opposite.

- G. K. Chesterton - Success usually comes to those who

are too busy to be looking for it.

- Henry David Thoreau - When a resolute young fellow steps up to the

great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in

his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers.

- Ralph Waldo Emerson -

To go against the dominant thinking of your friends, of most of the people

you see every day, is perhaps the most difficult act of heroism you can

perform.

- Theodore H. White - Patience and perseverance have a magical

effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish. A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much

knowledge that is idle.

- John Quincy Adams - One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot

practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.

- Maya Angelou - With courage you will dare to take

risks, have the strength to be compassionate, and the wisdom to be humble. Courage is the foundation of

integrity.

- Keshavan Nair - Moral cowardice that keeps us from speaking our

minds is as dangerous to this country as irresponsible talk. The right way is not always the

popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character.

- Margaret Chase Smith -

If you would live your life with ease; do what you ought, not what you please.

- Prentice - It is easier to suppress the first desire

than to satisfy all that follow.

- Anonymous - Hell is the knowledge of opportunity lost; the place where the man I am comes face to face with the man I

might have been.

- Anonymous - Let him that would move the world

first move himself.- Socrates-
