Here are some of my favorites :
"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved." Helen Keller"Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us." Sir Winston Churchill
"A lot of people run to see who is the fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more. Nobody is going to win a 5000 meter race after running an easy 2 miles. Not with me. If I lose forcing the pace all the way, well, ar least I can live with myself." Steve Prefontaine
"There is one rule, above all others, for being a men. Whatever comes, face it on your feet." Robert Jordan
"Pain is temporary, pride is forever!" ??
"Never give in. Never give in. Never give in." Churchill
"The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in combat" Navy Seals
