Let's Give 'em Something To Talk About...
Hey all, just a few quotes here that I don't want to store anywhere else (Amen for the nonspace of cyberspace).
How caught up we get in perfecting the art of conforming to what others so to prevent the need to speak for ourselves.
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. - Will Rogers
A great deal of talent is lost to the world for want of a little courage. Every day sends to their graves obscure men whose timidity prevented them from making a fist effort. - Sydney Smith
Excellence is not a singular act, but a habit. You are what you repeatedly do. - Shaquille O'Neal
We can try to avoid making choices by doing nothing, but even that is a decision. - Gary Collins
"It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary." - Sir Winston Churchill

"This one step -- choosing a goal and sticking to it -- changes everything." - Scott Reed
"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it come true. You may have to work for it, however." - Richard Bach
"When making a decision of minor importance, I have always found it advantageous to consider all the pros and cons. In vital matters, however, such as the choice of a mate or a profession, the decision should come from the unconscious, from somewhere within ourselves. In the important decisions of personal life, we should be governed, I think, by the deep inner needs of our nature." - Sigmund Freud
"Fall seven times, stand up eight." - Japanese Proverb
"To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe." - Anatole France
"Speak what you think to-day in words as hard as cannon-balls and to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said to-day." - Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Self Reliance"
"The best way out is always through." - Robert Frost
Best wishes all, Katie
