As a man thinketh, so he is.

Beaten paths are for beaten men.

Competition can anger and frustrate, but win or lose, it makes you better.

“It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.”

“It is that physical courage should be so common in the world, and moral courage so rare”

“God grant me the courage not to give up what I think is right even though I think it is hopeless.”
- Chester W. Nimitz

"Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.”
- Orison Swett Marden

"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.”
- Winston Churchill

“To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed.”
- Bernard Edmonds

Determination is not a talent, not a trait, it is an attitude.

"Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work."
-Thomas A. Edison

"Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first."
-Mark Twain

J. Bon Jovi- Blood Money

Hey Patty Garrett that's what I used to call you
They tell me you want me but I hear they've got you
They made you a lawman with a badge made of silver
They paid you some money to sell them my blood

But you say this ain't about me, this ain't about you
Or the good and the bad times we've both been through
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed
You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away

I wonder what would have happened
If you were the killer
And I was the hero
Would things be the same
Or would I have traded
Your life for my own life
Would I have paid
Your debts in your place

But this ain't about me, this ain't about you
Or the good and the bad times we've both been through
When the lines between brothers and justice have changed
You do what you've got to cause you can't walk away

Blood money
That's what I call it
'Cause money for blood ain't no fair exchange
Blood money
Bought and then sold you
But your conscience is all you can take to your grave

J. Bon Jovi- Bang a Drum

I went to see the preacher
To teach me how to pray
He looked at me and smiled
Then the preacher turned away
He said if you want to tell him something
You ain't gotta fold your hands
Say it with your heart
Your soul and believe it
And I'd say amen

Bang a drum for the sinners
Bang a drum for the sins
Bang a drum for the losers
And those who win
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for yourself son
And a drum for me

I called upon my brother just the
Other day, he said: John I'm gonna
Die if I don't start to live again
I work each day and night like clockwork
Just trying to make ends meet
I could kick this bad world's ass
If I could just get on my feet

I'd bang a drum for the dying
Bang a drum for the truth
Bang a drum for the innocence
Lost in our youth
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for you brother
And a drum for me

I don't know where all the rivers run
I don't know how far, I don't know how come
But I'm gonna die believin'
Each step that I take
Ain't worth the ground that
I walk on
If we don't walk it our
Own way

No I don't claim to be a wiseman
A poet or a saint
I'm just another man who's searching
For a better way
But my heart beats loud as thunder
For the things that I believe
Sometimes I wanna run for cover
Sometimes I want to scream

Bang a drum for tomorrow
Bang a drum for the past
Bang a drum for the heroes
That won't come back
Bang a drum for the promise
Bang a drum for the lies
Bang a drum for the lovers
And the tears they've cried
Bang a drum bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
But as long as my heart keeps on bangin'
I got a reason to believe

He who knows and knows not that he knows. He is asleep;
wake him.

He who knows not and knows not that he knows not. He is a fool;
shun him.

He who knows not and knows that he knows not. He is a child;
teach him.

He who knows and knows that he knows. He is a king;
follow him.


Chinese Proverb

It's the little things we do or say
That make or break the beauty of the average passing days.
Hearts, like doors, will open with ease
To very, very little keys,
And don't forget that two of these
Are "I thank you," and "If you please."

For every minute you remain angry,
you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.

~RAlph Waldo Emerson~

The pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity;
the optimist, the opportunity in every difficulty.

~L.P. Jacks~
