Nothing is more expensive
Than a missed opportunity.
- H. Jackson Brown
Success is to be measured not so
much
by the position that one has reached in life
as by the obstacles which he has overcome.

- Booker T. Washington
It teaches the strong to know when
they
Are weak and the brave to face
themselves
When they are afraid.
To be proud and unbowed in defeat
yet
Humble and gentle in victory.
And to master ourselves before we
attempt
To master others.
And to learn to laugh, yet never
forget how
To weep.
And to give the predominance of
courage
Over timidity.
- General Douglas MacArthur,
On the virtues of competitive
athletics
