    To change the things I can courage;
    And to know the difference wisdom. Yes, hmmm.

    "The true test of a leader is that we leave behind in our men the will and conviction to carry on when we are gone" means a lot to me when I think about the next fight

    "'There are all kinds of courage,' said Dumbledore, smiling. "It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends. I therefore award ten points to Mr. Neville Longbottom." (Rowling 306)

    Pain is temporary, pride lasts forever.

    Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.

    “When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life.
    When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.
    I wrote down ‘happy’.
    They told me I didn’t understand the assignment,
    and I told them they didn’t understand life.”

    ― John Lennon

    A little long but I love it. More of a speech.

    "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!”
    ― Sylvester Stallone, Rocky Balboa

    "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world . . . [...] But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music, out of my burrow. And then look: you see the grain-fields down yonder? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat . . ."

    It's quite a long quote... It's from the `Little Prince`... a children book that can say so many important things even to adults.
    But it always remembers me how great some people made me feel in my life... and what they did with a introvert person such as I.
