I thought there was a post here of inspiring quotes I was going to revive it, but I couldn't find it. So, anyway, I'd like to see some of the words that help you succeed. I've been noticing some great quotes in your siggies...

Nothing can stop the man (or woman) with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man (or woman) with the wrong mental attitude.
~Thomas Jefferson

A failure is a man (or woman ) who has blundered, but is not able to cash in on the experience.
~Elbert Hubbard

To climb steep hills requires a slow pace at first.
~Shakespeare

I have a fondess for the one in my signature

These are my 2 all- time faves!

Your body is the baggage you must carry through life. The more excess the baggage, the shorter the trip!

"You didn't get out of shape and unhealthy overnight, and you won't get fit and healthy overnight - despite what the infomercials tell you!"

[suitejudyblueeyes]

Oooh, I have some to share!

Energy and persistence conquer all things. (Benjamin Franklin)
good to remember when that scale doesn't budge...

One who fears failure limits his activities. Failure is only the opportunity to more intelligently begin again. (Henry Ford)
and every time I blow through all my FPs in two days I must remember this.

Most of the shadows of this life are caused by our standing in our own sunshine. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
I just think this one's beautiful.

Keep steadily before you the fact that all true success depends at last upon yourself. (Theodore T. Hunger)

We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit. (Aristotle)

The tragedy in life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach. (Benjamin Mays)

[vealcalf2000]

Life and death, energy and peace. If I stop today it was still worth it. Even the terrible mistakes that I made and would have unmade if I could. The pains that have burned me and scarred my soul, it was worth it, for having been allowed to walk where I've walked, which was to **** on earth, heaven on earth, back again, into, under, far in between, through it, in it, and above.

[Lovely]

Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.
- Edmund Burke

Dripping water can eat through stone.
- Chinese Proverb (A super duper favorite of mine!)

And the quote from my signature which is part of my signature for a reason:

"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."
- Winston Churchill

[kelijpa]

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson (also what we put within us can make our behinds bigger )

“Never let yesterday's disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dreams.”
Unknown (comes in handy often in WW!)

"Only a dreamer can make dreams come true"
Unknown a personal favorite

This thread is great! Here are a couple of my favorites (do lyrics count?)

Part of the Plan (Chorus)

Love when you can
Cry when you have to
Be who you must
That's a part of the plan
Await your arrival with simple survival
And one day we'll all understand
One day we'll all understand
One day we'll all understand
Dan Fogelberg

"Be the change you want to see in the world." - Mahatma Ghandi

Always do right. This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.
Mark Twain

Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritations and resentments slip away and a sunny spirit takes their place.
Mark Twain

Okay - I'll stop now but I may be back with more. Why is it you can never remember your favorite quotes, songs or jokes when you want to?

Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before. ~Jacob A. Riis
