It Takes You
We are what we
repeatedly do.
Excellence then, is
not an act, but a
habit.
- Aristotle
Life’s battles
don’t always go to
the stronger or faster
man. Sooner or later
the man who wins is
the man who thinks
he can.
– Vince Lombardi
It’s not just about ideas, it’s
about making ideas happen.
-Unknown
Our greatest weakness
lies in giving up. The
most certain way to
succeed is always to
try just one more time.
– Thomas A. Edison
Never, Never, Never
Give Up.
– Winston Churchill
