To laugh often and much, You never win a game unless you beat the guy in front of you. The score on the board doesn't mean a thing. That’s for the fans. You’ve got to win the war with the man in front of you. You've got to get your man. ››After all the cheers have died down and the stadium is empty, after the headlines have been written, and after you are back in the quiet of your room and the championship ring has been placed on the dresser and after all the pomp and fanfare have faded, the enduring thing that is left is the dedication to doing with our lives the very best we can to make the world a better place in which to live. ››We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started. ››Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time. ››It is not ease, but effort - not facility, but difficulty, that makes men. There is, perhaps, no station in life in which difficulties have not to be encountered and overcome before any decided measure of success can be achieved. ››The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honour. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved. ››The most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well. ››Success can also cause misery. The trick is not to be surprised when you discover it doesn't bring you all the happiness and answers you thought it would. ››Successful people are always looking for opportunities to help others. Unsuccessful idiots are always asking, 'What's in it for me?' ››
