- Inspirational Quotes -

You were not born a winner, and you were not born a loser. You are what you make yourself be.
~ Lou Holtz

~ William Arthur Ward

Don't take life to seriously because you'll never get out alive.
~ Josh Shippe

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
~ Nelson Mandela
Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny--he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered, some work has to be completed. You are not here accidentally--you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you. The whole intends to do something through you.
~ Osho

Life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.
~ John Maxwell

Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them.
~ Richard L. Evans

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
~ Helen Keller

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
~ Gordon B. Hinckley

The steeper the mountain the harder the climb the better the view from the finishing line.

We must become the change we want to see.
~ Mahatma Gandhi
Give it all you've got because you never know if there's going to be a next time.
~ Danielle Ingrum

To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are.
~ Tim Menchen

The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.
~ Voltaire

The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it.
~ General H. Norman Schwarzkopf


What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Watch your thoughts, they become your words. Watch your words, they become your actions. Watch your actions, they become your habits. Watch your habits, they become your character. Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.
~ Author Unknown

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
~ Albert Camus

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.
~ Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Seize the day, put no trust in tomorrow!
Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero!
~ Horace

You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
~ Christopher Columbus

Our friends should be companions who inspire us, who help us rise to our best.

Within us are powers and abilities that are like invisible sparks waiting to be fanned into brilliant flames.
~ H. Spencer Lewis

When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfull...y upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.
~ Alexander Graham Bell


Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
~ Helen Keller
