A
kite
rises
highest
not
with
the
wind
but
against
it

Winston
Churchill
Many
of
life’s
failures
are
people
who
did
not
realize
how
close
they
were
to
success
when
they
gave
up.

Thomas
Edison
The
difference
between
a
successful
person
and
others
is
not
a
lack
of
strength,
not
a
lack
of
knowledge,
but
rather
a
lack
of
determination.

Vince
Lombardi
These
are
the
times
in
which
a
genius
would
wish
to
live.
For
it
is
not
in
the
still
calm
of
life
that
great
characters
are
formed.
The
habits
of
a
vigorous
mind
are
formed
in
contending
with
difficulties.
Great
necessities
call
out
great
virtues.
When
a
mind
is
animated
and
raised
by
scenes
that
engage
the
heart,
then
those
qualities
that
would
otherwise
lay
dormant,
wake
into
life
to
form
the
character
of
the
hero
and
the
statesman.

Proceed
fearlessly
whichever
way,
path
or
action
you
take.
