Transcript of - Anna Quindlen - You learn as much from those who have failed as from those who have succeeded.
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.
- Emily Dickinson - I owe my success to having listened respectfully to the very best advice, and then going away and doing the
exact opposite.
- 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 -
- 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.
