I keep finding all these great quotes, and wanted to share :D Enjoy your Sunday!

"Faith is taking the first step...even when you don't see the whole staircase." Martin Luther King

"The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny." Albert Ellis

"Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending." Carl Bard

For a chuckle -
"The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands and, when it gets old and shabby, a woman can dispose of it and get a new one without shocking the entire community"- Ann Strong, Minneapolis tribune, 1895

My all time favorite, which I bring up every time I start questioning myself:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Teddy Roosevelt[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"Citizenship in a Republic,"[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910[/FONT]

That quote got me through my 100 mile bike ride. I kept telling myself I was daring greatly. :D
