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

The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense.

Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries.

NEVER GIVE UP
No matter what is going on
Never give up
Develop the heart
Too much energy in your country
Is spent developing the mind
Instead of the heart
Be compassionate
Not just to your friends
But to everyone
Be compassionate
Work for peace
In your heart and in the world
Work for peace
And I say again
Never give up
No matter what is going on around you
Never give up

I have never failed, I've only shown the way I did it before doesn't work.

If we all did the things we are really capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves.
