(I got most of these quotes from little good-luck cards and team spirit
things...
great for determination and courage.)
"Your calling is where your own greatest joy intersects with the
needs of the world."
-Frederick Buechner
(quote from Bridget)
Every time your toe is at the line, you
make a choice.
You choose to run the race of your life
or you choose to see what happens.
-Amy Leicht
The characteristics that make a good person
also make a good athlete. Respect, the ability to work with others, an unselfish attitude,
dependability, commitment, and pure determination are frequently more important to
athletic success than raw talent alone. Athletes with a lot of desire can go further and
become more successful than others who have more ability. Lucky is the athlete who has
both talent and a good character.
Natural talent only determines the limits of your athletic potential. It's dedication and
a willingness to discipline your life that makes you great.
-from Coach
To walk with Him is to walk in light.
The lord is my light and my salvation-whom shall I fear?
Psalm 27:1
When you get into a tight place and everything
goes against you,
Till it seems as though you could not hang on a moment longer,
Never give up then,
For that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
-Harriet Beecher Stowe
I am only one;
But I am still one.
I cannot do everything,
But I can still do something,
I will not refuse to do something I can do.
-Helen Keller
The glory is not in never failing,
But in rising every time you fail.
-Chinese proverb
Your attitude almost always determines your
altitude in life.
DARE TO SOAR!
Success is a journey, not a destination.
Live your life each day as you would climb a
mountain.
An occasional glance toward the summit keeps the goal in mind,
but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point.
Climb slowly, steadily, enjoying each passing moment,
and the view from the summit will serve as a fitting climax for the journey.
-Harold Melchert
Excellence is an art won by training and
habit.
We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence,
but rather we have those because we have acted rightly.
We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
-from Golden Shoe Award
Life is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Victory is not won in miles but in inches.
Win a little now, hold your ground and later win a little more.
-Louis L'Amour
The currents that determine our
dreams and shape our lives
flow from the attitudes we nurture every day.
-from Coach
The smallest deed always exceeds the grandest of intentions.
