Dave Barry
● Karate is a form of martial arts in which people who have had years and years of training can, using only their hands and feet, make some of the worst movies in the history of the world.
Dr. David M. Burns
● Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life. Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism. Confronting your fears and allowing yourself the right to be human can, paradoxically, make yourself a happier and more productive person.
Dale Carnegie
● Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no help at all.
Dale Turner
● The greatest of all faults is to be conscious of none. Recognizing our limitations and imperfections is the first requisite of progress. Those who believe they have arrived believe they have nowhere to go. Some not only have closed their minds to new truth, but they sit on the lid.
Don Quixote – “Man of La Mancha”
● “Facts are the enemy of truth.”
Donald Kendall
● The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.
Dixy Lee Ray
● A nuclear power plant is infinently safer than eating, because 300 people choke to death on food every year.
Donald Trump
● I like thinking big. If you’re going to be thinking anything, you might as well think big.
Dorothy Day
● No one has a right to sit down and feel hopeless. There’s too much work to do.
● One of the greatest evils of the day among those outside of prison is their sense of futility. Young people say, What is the sense of our small effort? They cannot see that we must lay one brick at a time, take one step at a time; we can be responsible only for the one action of the present moment. |
