       -William Ellery Channing

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
       -Mark Twain

Unless a man undertakes more than he possibly can do, he will never do all that he can.

Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are.

Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to the end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories but it takes brave men and women to win them. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

 I have always grown from my problems and challenges from the things that don’t work  out, that’s when I’ve really learned. – Carol Burnett  

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear. Accept a creature to be part coward, it is not a compliment to say it is brave. – Mark Twain

 Don’t be afraid your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin – Grace Hansen
