Courage is the discovery that you may not win---
and trying when you know you can lose.

Honor is standing for what you believe---
not for what you know.

Life isn't about living without problems.
Life is about solving problems.

If you plow the field every day---
the only thing that grows is resentment.

Compassion is passion with a heart.

The only thing in the whole universe people need
is to control their attitudes.

How a person wins and loses is much more important
than how much a person wins or loses.

If you only do what you know you can do---
you never do very much.

There are no failures---
just experiences and your reactions to them.

Getting what you want is not nearly as important
as giving what you have.

Going on a journey with a map requires following directions---
going on a journey without one requires following your heart.

Talent without humility is wasted.
