A Man's reach shall exceed his grasp or what's a heaven for.

Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent.

~Marlene Vos Savant

An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come.

~Victor Hugo

Fear no opponent. Respect every opponent.
Remember, it's the perfection of the smallest details that makes big things happen.
Keep in mind that hustle makes up for many a mistake.
Be more interested in character that in reputation.
Be quick, but don't hurry.
Understand that the harder you work the more luck you will have.
Know that valid self-analysis is crucial for improvement.
Remember that there is no substitute for hard work and careful planning.
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

~Coach John Wooden

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us. You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is with in us. It's not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

~Marianne Williamson

Does this path have a heart? If it does the path is good; if it doesn't it is of no use....One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you.

~Carlos Castaneda

The privilege of a lifetime is to be what you are.

When it's over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom taking the world into my arms...I don't want to end up simply having visited the world.

~Mary Oliver

When it comes time to die I don't want to look back and say I never really lived.

~Henry David Thoreau

We are wounded simply by participating in human life, by being children of Adam and Eve.

...if you can meet with triumph and disaster, and treat these two imposters just the same...if you can fill the unforgiving minute, with sixty seconds worth of distance run, yours is the earth and everything that's in it, and, which is more you'll be a man my son.

~Rudyard Kipling

...grant that I may not so much seek to be understood as to understand...

~Saint Francis Assisi

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.

~William Blake

The unexamined life is not worth living and the unlived life is not worth examining.
