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

    this one is long, but worth it

    "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 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 and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for 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 he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
    --Teddy Roosevelt

    I Love the second one :D

    Not really a quote. My trainer calls me a "95er" when I don't give my all. In other words, always give 100%, don't be a "95er".

    Oh man, dusting off the quote books (collections of quotes I've written down cause I've found ones I've liked).

    "Opportunity always involves some risk. You can't steal second and keep your foot on first"
    "For every winner, there is a loser. And they didn't need to lose. They just didn't understand the game"
    "I'm thought accepting limits, cause someone says they're so. Some things I cannot change but till I try I'll never know"
    "If it all falls down, if they find me out, if they solve my life, never thought to keep all I have found. I've had my fun if it all falls down"
    "Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition"
    "Don't you sit upon the shoreline and say you're satisfied. Choose to chance the rapids, and dare to dance the tides"
    "The sins you regret the most are the ones you don't commit"
    "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work"
    "I begin by taking. I shall later find scholars to demonstrate my perfect right"
    "Courage is daring to take that first step, or a different path. It is the decision to place your dreams above your fears"

    ....I could go on but won't. Hahhaha
