Failures and Mistakes

"When I was young, I observed that nine out of ten things I
did were failures. So I did ten times more work.

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but
more useful than a life spent doing nothing. "

- George Bernard Shaw, an Irish
playwright who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1925.

We all have the Power..

"We all have our own life to pursue, our own kind of dream
to be weaving, and we all have the power to make wishes
come true, as long as we keep believing."

How to understand the worth of time

"Have regular hours for work and play; make each day both
useful and pleasant, and prove that you understand the
worth of time by employing it well."

Strong Convictions Precede...

"He who believes is strong; he who doubts is weak. Strong
convictions precede great actions."
