Quote of the day

A question about : Quote of the day

You might have one of those block/tear off calendars with a quote for the day.

I thought I'd share this one with you, from my recent visit to ground zero in New York. It is displayed on a massive (50ft plus) poster overlooking the site.

• "It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard, and the courage to believe in yourself. Know that your dreams must come from your heart's deepest desires. Only then will the barriers come down before you. To know your heart, you must know yourself. You are who you decide to be, not who other people decide for you to be. Be noble. Stand on the higher ground. Create your life and then go out and live it."
• You don't stop laughing because you grow old, you grow old because you stopped laughing
• Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.
• "People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. People will never forget how you made them feel."
• A money based one (might be slightly misworded):

• A deep thought...
  To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when walking around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" you can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."
• I read the first 3 posts and deduced:
  Size doesn't matter.
  I'm going to be old and lonely.
  You don't have to be clever to be successful.
  Does this make me shallow?

• Sorry for lowering the tone of the thread...heres my real one:
  Nothing in the world
  is as soft, as weak,as water;
  nothing else can wear away
  the hard, the strong,
  and remain unaltered.
  Soft overcomes hard,
  weak overcomes strong.
  Everybody knows it,
  nobody uses the knowledge.
• Thats ended all the rumours of you being my love child,
  you're far too nice.
