I love searching and discovering powerful phrases, quotes and words of wisdom that inspire action and provide insight to making myself a better person. Below are quotes from individuals that hopefully inspire you as much as they do me.

 

"Do not wait for leaders. Do it alone, person to person." -- Mother Theresa

"We don't see things as they are. We see them as we are." -- Anais Nin

"The charity that is a trifle to us can be precious to others." -- Homer

"I not only use all the brains that I have, but all that I can borrow." -- Woodrow Wilson

"Waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both. Without industry and frugality, nothing will do, and with them everything." -- Benjamin Franklin

"If you wish to have power and influence over the many, be faithful (disciplined) when there is just a few. If you have a few employees, a few distributors, a few people, that's the time to stay in touch and be totally absorbed – when there is just a few." -- Jim Rohn

"Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sang best."  --  Henry Van Dyke

"Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing flawlessly." -- Robert Schuller

"Don't wait. The time will never be just right." -- Napoleon Hill

"You don't have to be great to get started, but you have to get started to be great." -- Les Brown

"In the long run, men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, they had better aim at something high." -- Henry David Thoreau

"Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan." -- Tom Landry

"You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand." -- Woodrow Wilson

"From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life." -- Arthur Ashe

"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." -- Norman MacEwan

Maggie - Glad to hear all is going great!!! To tell you the truth, I'm busier than ever...that's why my blogging has slowed down. I'm taking a break this Holiday weekend (at least I'll attempt).

Hi, Tony!  I enjoyed your favorite quotes.  This is my favorite... "A virtue and a muscle are alike, when neither is exercised, it gets flabby." -- Richard L. Rooney.

I think I'll add Napoleon Hill's since I'm a great procrastinator.  Thanks for the thoughts!
