    "If you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level." --Bruce Lee

    My favorite quote is "Evil Triumphs when Good Men do Nothing." It's been phrased so many ways by so many people, but that's my favorite version.

    @shoshi68 -- Indeed, Winston was a character. 8^)

    Another saying, which has been phrased various ways over the years but still holds a special place in my mind is:

    "I wish I could be the person my dog thinks I am." :smile:

    "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?" (Marianne Williamson)

    That is also one of my favourites, so much so that i want "It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." as part of a tattoo im getting next

    You should post pics when you do! Great idea =)
