Answer 3

My all-time favorite quote is,

"All of us, or none of us!"

Actually this quote expresses a world view.

It is a view that includes all human beings.

It is a view that embraces this truth. All life is precious.

It is a view that allows you to treat every human being
with respect and dignity.

If we cannot achieve this then our world will always be
a place of many tears.

Have fun but be safe.

My favorite quote is...The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt within the heart. ... Helen Keller

Answer 5

Answer 7

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. -Michael Jordan

This quote inspired me to get off my butt and out of my "cautious" life and pursue my dreams.

Answer 8

“The things to do are: the things that need doing: that you see need to be done,
and that no one else seems to see need to be done. Then you will conceive your own way
of doing that which needs to be done --that no one else has told you to do or how to do it.
This will bring out the real you that often gets buried inside a character that has acquired a
superficial array of behaviors induced or imposed by others on the individual.”
-R. Buckminster Fuller

Some real words of wisdom. The way it should be done.
