Jarod Kintz "Wisdom equals knowledge plus courage. You have to not only know what to do and when to do it, but you have to also be brave enough to follow through." Lou Holtz "Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it." Ernst F. Schumacher "An ounce of practice is generally worth more than a ton of theory." Dag Hammarskjold "Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find the right road." Oprah Winfrey "Create the highest, grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe." |
