“On life’s report card, attitude counts, enthusiasm counts,
         a commitment to lifelong learning counts, hard work counts,
         and helping others counts.  If you go all-out,
         you will feel the difference in the quality of your life, and
         that is what success is all about.”

                                    (Steve Lodle)

“The beauty of doing nothing is that you can do it perfectly.
         Only when you do something is it almost impossible to do it
         without mistakes. Therefore people who are contributing
         nothing to society except their constant criticisms can feel
         both intellectually and morally superior.”

                             (Thomas Sowell)

      If they start living in a dream world, it’s going to be bad.”

     but in fact, the enemy gets a vote.”

  The starting point of achievement is desire.  Keep this
      constantly in mind.  Weak desires produce weak results,
      just as a small amount of fire produces a small amount
      of heat.

                              (Napoleon Hill)

"It's easier said than done."

... and if you don't believe it, try proving that it's easier done than
said, and you'll see that "it's easier said that `it's easier done than
said' than it is done", which really proves that "it's easier said than
done".
