Hi MOMENTUM Members,

What are your favourite quotes ? those that motivate you to persevere ? or those that encourage you to work hard to achieve your goals ? or quotes that inspire you in other ways ?

I will start by sharing with you some quotes that I really like and that inspire me:

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
Margaret Mead

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore,
is not an act but a habit.
Aristotle

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack in will.

For the train ride from Philadelphia to Washington, Barack Obama offered a number of statements worth quoting. For this purpose, I created OBAMERICA: "A New Birth of Freedom." available here: http://ABC4All.net/wearetheones.htm

Note that Francine Jarry of Rainbow Music had created the original song, "We Are The Ones (we are waiting for)" based on Hopi tradition, long before Obama declared his candidacy. She created this song which has been dedicated to ABC4All Mentors.

Thanks for looking!

"Success is the ability to move from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm." - Sir Winston Churchill

"Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb. " - Sir Winston Churchill

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy." - Martin Luther King Jr.

[Meryem Yeltekin]

There are too many quotes I have been inspired n Here is one only :

All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible..

[Joshua Lessard]

Here are some of the quotes that I find to be most motivating:

"The human race is challenged more than ever before to demonstrate our mastery - not over nature but of ourselves"
- Rachel Carson

"Poetry matters. Poetry is what elevates the banal and neglected object to a realm of art. It can transform the thing that might have made people fearful into something that invites them to look, and look a little longer, and maybe even understand."
-Aimee Mullins

"Develop an infallible technique and then place yourself at the mercy of inspiration."
-Ralph Rapson

"An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind."
- Mahatma Gandhi
