He who has never failed somewhere, that man cannot be great.

Try and fail, but don't fail to try.

He had no influence. But he did have initiative, faith, and the will to win.

Great men are never sufficiently shown but in struggles.

Once a person is determined to help themselves, there is nothing that can stop them.

Your ability to see failure as a necessary stepping stone directly correlates with your ability to dream bigger and dream better.

Everyone wants to be strong and self sufficient, but few are willing to put in the work necessary to achieve worthy goals.

Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.
