I have a habit of copying all good quotes I find and saving them, so I've got a pretty big list now. It's a little hard to pick favorites, but here are some candidates: More powerful than the will to win is the courage to begin." ~Unknown A man succeeds or fails. A coward never makes the attempt. ~Steve Pavlina A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new. ~ Einstein “Man spends all his life climbing a ladder, only to find that when he gets to the top, it was up the wrong wall.” “when would NOW be a good time to start??” ~James Arthur Ray "Never wish life were easier, wish that you were better" - Jim Rohne It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop. ~ Confucius "The saddest thing in life is people with sight but without vision" - Helen Keller Didn't mean to put so many up here, but there's so many good ones! |

I love quotes. I need a commonplace book or something, to put them all in. Anyway, right now I like this a whole lot: "We shed as we pick up, like travellers who must carry everything in their arms, and what we let fall will be picked up by those behind. The procession is very long and life is very short. We die on the march. But there is nothing outside the march so nothing can be lost to it. The missing plays of Sophocles will turn up piece by piece, or be written again in another language. Ancient cures for diseases will reveal themselves once more. Mathematical discoveries glimpsed and lost to view will have their time again. You do not suppose, my lady, that if all of Archimedes had been hiding in the great library of Alexandria, we would be at a loss for a corkscrew?" -- Tom Stoppard, Arcadia |

ive also got a notepad full of inspiring quotes, some of my favorites: Great things are done when men and mountains meet. - William Blake A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened. - Albert Camus | |

My favorite quotes: "A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man cannot be perfected without sins." "Life without friendship is like the sky without the sun." "Try to fail but never fail to try." "Aim high and hit the mark." "Love until it hurts; love until it hurts you more; and love until it hurts you no more." |

I haven't held any specific quotes in mind recently but I used to really like this one that said No matter far you have gone down the wrong road, turn back. I also like Everyone always complains about the weather but nobody ever does anything about it. Also I have been doing A Course in Miracles. There are so many good quotes from that I could not even begin to recount them. |

"I do my thing, and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, and you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful." "Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the Ark. Professionals built the Titanic" Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again. ~Og Mandino |
