    "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
    — Theodore Roosevelt

    one of my all time favourites;

    for attractive lips, speak kind words; for lovely eyes, seek out the good in people; for a slim figure, share your food with the hungry; for beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day; for poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. (Sam Levenson)

    I've seen a few variations of this one from Jillian Michaels on here:

    I'm paraphrasing here.....

    Unless you puke, pass out or die ... keep going. (In my head I replace "going" with "running")

    My favorite:


    There comes a time in your life when you realize who matters, who don't, who won't anymore and who always will. There is a reason people from your past don't make it to your future.

    Oh wow... nice.

    Here's mine:
    1) You cannot direct the winds but you can adjust your sail.
    2) Unless you flap your wings you will never know how high you can fly.
    3) Your mind is like a parachute, it works best when it is open.
