Quotes
- ~~~~
- You're not obligated to win. You're obligated to keep trying to do the best you can every day.
- ~~~~
- How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.
- ~~~~
- To a great extent, the people with whom you choose to associate influence the direction of your life.
- ~~~~
- All good is hard. All evil is easy. Dying, losing, cheating, and mediocrity is easy. Stay away from easy.
- ~~~~
- A person will worship something, have no doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of our hearts, but it will out us. That which dominates our imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives, and our character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.
- ~~~~
- People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of their character.
- ~~~~
- Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are, to some extent, a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it, piece by piece -- by thought, choice, courage, and determination.
- ~~~~
- They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
- ~~~~
- Change for the better requires effort. Change for the worse needs none.
- ~~~~
- To change our lives, we must first change our minds.
- ~~~~
- Nobody got anywhere in the world by simply being content.
- ~~~~
- The road that is built in hope is more pleasant to the traveler than the road built in despair, even though they both lead to the same destination.
- ~~~~
- Material possessions will rust away, wear away, or depreciate, but your inner resources - character - must never depreciate. In seeking success you must also seek fulfillment. Ask yourself not only what you want to be, but who you want to be.
- ~~~~
- Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.
- ~~~~
- Take risks: if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wiser.
- ~~~~
- If you are never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
- ~~~~
- Ask yourself: "What have I missed out on simply because I was too afraid of what others would think?"
- ~~~~
- Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
- ~~~~
- I'd rather have 30 seconds of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special.
- ~~~~
- And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count; it's the life in your years.
- ~~~~
