    That which does not kill us makes us stronger or break us like a reed in the wind.

    I'm not a reed.

    And yes, Kate Moss did say that, Swopkin!

    Motivates me to not despair at the way the world works:

    The whole history of the world is summed up
    in the fact that when nations are strong they
    are not always just, and when they wish to be
    just they are often no longer strong.

    Wow.. I have so many..

    I save a ton of the motivational quotes on Tumblr because they're more meaningful in picture-form.. I'm eventually going to print them all into a scrap book so I always have something to keep me focused. :)

    Pride kills the heart. LOVE THIS!!

    Those two quotes keep me going when my hands are bloody from work, when my feet are blistered and swolen, when I'm at the gym, and I need to push that ONE more rep...

    The list of things those two quotes have pushed me to do is long...and the things on it sometimes happy, sometimes sad...but always...necessary.

    You cannot change the past, but you can do something about the future. With the right attitude, you will recover more in the future than you've lost in the past.
