Here is a sampling of quotes found in this book as a teaser and to get your interest in the book:<\/p>\n

Do not say a little in many words but a great deal in a few. – Pythagoras<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t even know how strong we are until we are forced to bring that hidden strength forward. – Isabel Allende<\/p>\n

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. – John Quincy Adams<\/p>\n

Practice doesn\u2019t make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. – Vince Lombardi<\/p>\n

A smart man makes a mistake, learns from it, and never makes that mistake again. But a wise man finds a smart man and learns from him how to avoid the mistake altogether. – Roy H. Williams<\/p>\n

I like friends who have independent minds because they tend to make you see problems from all angles. – Nelson Mandela<\/p>\n

I have not failed. I\u2019ve just found 10,000 ways that won\u2019t work. – Thomas Edison<\/p>\n

Confidence doesn\u2019t come out of nowhere. It\u2019s a result of something . . . hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication. – Roger Staubach<\/p>\n

Moral excellence comes about as a result of habit. We become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate acts, brave by doing brave acts. – Aristotle<\/p>\n

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. – Dale Carnegie<\/p>\n

Every disability conceals a vocation, if only we can find it, which will turn the necessity to glorious gain. – C.S Lewis<\/p>\n

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you too, can become great. When you are seeking to bring big plans to fruition, it is important with whom you regularly associate. Hang out with friends who are like-minded and who are also designing purpose-filled lives. Similarly, be that kind of a friend for your friends. – Mark Twain<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently \u2014 they\u2019re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can\u2019t do is ignore them because
\nthey change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do. – Steve Jobs<\/p>\n

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality. – Bishop Desmond Tutu<\/p>\n

I expect to pass through this world but once; any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now; let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again. – Ettiene De Grellet<\/p>\n

Heroism is not about being perfect or invincible. It\u2019s about summoning courage in the face of vulnerability. – Bren\u00e9 Brown<\/p>\n
