Anyone have any good quotes that they have used that have helped them along the way?

"Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal."
Henry Ford

"If a task has once begun.
Never leave it till it's done.
Be the labor great or small.
Do it well or not at all."

    It's not that some people have willpower and some don't.
    It's that some people are ready to change and others are not.

    If you can meet with triumph and disaster
    And treat those two imposters just the same;
    Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
    And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

    There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
    There are thousands to prophesy failure;
    There are thousands to point out to you, one by one,
    The dangers that wait to assail you.

    But just buckle right in with a bit of a grin,
    Just take off your coat and go to it;
    Just start to sing as you tackle the thing
    That cannot be done, and you'll do it

    I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.
