nt as what you become by achieving your goals. -Zig Ziglar It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell. -Buddha Whatever your life's work is, do it well. A man should do his job so well that the living, the dead, and the unborn could do it no better. -Martin Luther King, Jr. It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership. -Nelson Mandela There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time. -Malcolm X Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity. -Carl Jung Girls are like phones. They love to be held and talked to for hours, but if you press the wrong button, you'll be disconnected. The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.".
