Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.
People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances.
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.
Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.
The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want and if they can't find them, make them.
The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.
Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
You never know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice.
The weak can never forgive.
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.
Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never -- in nothing, great or small, large or petty -- never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense.
He who conquers others is strong; He who conquers himself is mighty.
Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.
