Please know that I am aware of the hazards. I want to do it because I
want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they
fail, their failure must be but a challenge to others. (--in a letter to
her husband, before her last flight) ~ Amelia Earhart
Most of us look at our ideals, say how far we are from them, and get
depressed. But it is heroic simply to say, "Here are my ideals," state
them before the world, and then spend your life trying to live up to
them. ~ Keshavan Nair
When you meet someone better than yourself, turn your thoughts to
becoming his equal. When you meet someone not as good as you are, look
within and examine your own self.
~ Confucious
Always dream and shoot higher than you know you can do. Don't bother
just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be
better than yourself. ~ William Faulkner
The Question: What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail? ~ Robert Schuller
