Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.
You never know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice.
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.
You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.
We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.
If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.
A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.
Anyone can hide. Facing up to things, working through them, that's what makes you strong.

We must do that which we think we cannot.
Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that. And living alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on Earth.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart.
Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
