Ralph Aldo Emmerson If your energy is as boundless as your ambition, total commitment may be a way of life you should seriously consider. Dr. Joyce Brothers When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal. Napolean Hill Life is always walking up to us and saying, "come on in, the living's fine," and what do we do? Back off and take a picture. Russell Baker If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." Winnie the Pooh Any great work of art... revives and readapts time and space, and the measure of its success is the extent to which it makes you an inhabitant of that world -- the extent to which it invites you in and lets you breathe its strange, special air. Leonard Bernstein A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out." Anonymous Legacy Creations 2004 Deluxe Edition 1

2 Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is most important that you do it. Gandhi The fact remains that the overwhelming majority of people who have become wealthy have become so thanks to work they found profoundly absorbing. The long-term study of people who eventually became wealthy clearly reveals that their "luck" arose from accidental dedication they had to an arena they enjoyed. Srully Blotnick And life is what we make it. Always has been, always will be. Grandma Moses Without planning you are like a sailboat at sea. You will go in the direction of the wind s whim and you will never get to where you want to go. The wind is like the opinion of others, take it for what it is and use it only when it will take you where you want to go. Andreas Simic Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing. Thomas Alva Edison My father always used to say that when you die, if you've got five real friends, then you've had a great life. Lee Iacocca An education isn t how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It s being able to differentiate between what you know and what you don t.

3 What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. Joseph Addison The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want. Ben Stein We can chart our future clearly and wisely only when we know the path which has led us to the present Adlai Ewing Stevenson Motivation will almost always beat mere talent. Norman R. Augustine I have always held firmly to the thought that each one of us can do a little to bring some portion of misery to an end. Albert Schweitzer Time is a rhythm. It comes and goes like the crackle of electricity in the brain, or the fush of blood through the heart or the tide up the beach. Lyall Watson There is no such thing as can't, only won't. If you're qualified, all it takes is a burning desire to accomplish, to make a change. Go forward, go backward. Whatever it takes! But you can't blame other people or society in general. It all comes from your mind. When we do the impossible we realize we are special people. Jan Ashford Legacy Creations 2004 Deluxe Edition 3

4 Tell me not, in mournful numbers, life is but an empty dream! For the soul is dead that slumbers, and things are not what they seem. Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art; to dust returnest, was not spoken of the soul. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Everything has been figured out, except how to live. Jean-Paul Sartre Keep on beginning and failing. Each time you fail, start all over gain, and you will grow stronger until have accomplished a purpose--not the one you began with perhaps, but one you'll be glad to remember. Annie Sullivan When you have made a decision to choose life over death you have made a lifetime commitment. It is this commitment that will see you through many a bleak day. For life is a journey, one with many ups and downs and if you choose life you will accept these travels through the highs and lows of daily living. Andreas Simic Not life, but good life, is to be chiefly valued. Socrates If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you'll achieve the same results.
