I hated every minute of training, but I said, “Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.”

“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of Hell, a hell of Heaven.”

“Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so.  For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.”

“Success…seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.”

“That’s precisely the question everyone should be asking—why the hell not?  – Why not you, why not now…”

“The dreamers are the saviors of the world.”

“How does one become a butterfly? You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.”

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”

“The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavour.”

“It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are.”

“One man with courage makes a majority.”

“Don’t let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.”

“Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently.”

“The best way to predict the future is to create it.”

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”
