    A great quote I use to keep myself going when I feel like giving up:

    "Be like a postage stamp. Stick to it till you get there" Bob Proctor

    Silly, yes. It helps me though

    I like this one "Be more concerned with your character than your reputation,
    because your character is what you really are,
    while your reputation is merely what others think you are ." John Wooden

    Money can't buy happiness but it's far better to cry in a Corvette than in a Yugo!

    My personal favorite is a military quote. It reminds me that there are better men.

    It is the Soldier, not the reporter
    Who has given us freedom of the press.

    It is the Soldier, not the poet,
    Who has given us freedom of speech.

    It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer,
    Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.

    It is the Soldier, not the lawyer,
    Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

    It is the Soldier, who salutes the flag,
    Who serves beneath the flag,
    And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
    Who allows the protestor to burn the flag.

    -by Father Dennis Edward O'Brien United States Marine Corps

    My Personal one is "Fuck It". Things usually dont work out perfectly. Don't get sad, or pissed.

    Just say Fuck It...

    Just my kind of thread! Here are some of my favorites:

    "All of us get lost in the darkness
    Dreamers learn to steer by the stars
    All of us do time in the gutter
    Dreamers turn to look at the cars"

    "It requires more courage to suffer than to die."

    "Today is different and tomorrow the same
    It's hard to take the world the way that it came."

    I like the quote said by Norman Schwarzkopf.

    "Leadership is the combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy. "

    Loved you quote and I recently read this one and thought of sharing this with you all.
