If you can accept losing, you can't win.

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style

There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly.

We have been called to heal wounds, to unite what has fallen apart, and to bring home those who have lost their way.

I love those who can smile in trouble...

I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.

Know thyself.

My dear friend, clear your mind of cant.

If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be one nation gone under.

You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows

You must never be fearful about what you are doing when it is right.

Every nation has the right to demand proper treatment and no country should violate the territory of any other country.

When obstacles arise, you change your direction to reach your goal; you do not change your decision to get there.

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.

Defeat is not defeat unless accepted as a reality-in your own mind.

Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life. Both life and death are parts of the same Great Adventure.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

It's always too early to quit.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.
