Life is Good

Some quotes for everyday living

"...Then the time come for you to be your own man and take on the world, and you did. But somewhere along the line, you changed. You stopped being you. You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you're no good. And when things got hard, you started looking for something to blame, like a big shadow. Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!..." -Rocky Balboa

"Believe you can and you're halfway there. "
"Courtesy is as much a mark of a gentleman as courage."
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."
"Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft."
-Teddy Roosevelt

"A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes." -Mohandas Gandhi

"Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love." -Mother Teresa

"Courage is being scared to death... and saddling up anyway." -John Wayne

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the guy who'll decide where to go." -Dr. Suess

"UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.� -Dr. Suess

"Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things that a man needs to believe in the most: that people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love, true love, never dies... No matter if they're true or not, a man should believe in those things because those are the things worth believing in." -Hub McCann
