When the morning's freshness has been replaced by the weariness of midday, when the leg muscles give under the strain, the climb seems endless, and suddenly nothing will go quite as you wish-it is then that you must not hesitate.

Every year on your birthday, you get a chance to start new.

Sammy Hagar

It is a time when one's spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death.

Mark Twain

Jose Marti

Losers make promises they often break. Winners make commitments they always keep.

Denis Waitley

Toni Cade Bambara

We have more information now than we can use, and less knowledge and understanding than we need. Indeed, we seem to collect information because we have the ability to do so, but we are so busy collecting it that we haven't devised a means of using it. The true measure of any society is not what it knows but what it does with what it knows.

Warren Bennis

Louis Nizer

Ghosts only exist for those who wish to see them.

Holtei

Despise the enemy strategically, but take him seriously tactically.

Mao Zedong

Tara Brach

I love Canada. It's a wonderful political act of faith that exists atop a breathtakingly beautiful land.

Yann Martel
