"'It is destiny' - phrase of the weak human heart! 'It is destiny' - dark apology for every error! The strong and virtuous admit no destiny."	E. R. Bulwer-Lytton
"...One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one's own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought."	Albert Einstein
"A child's hand in yours -- what tenderness and power it arouses. You are instantly the very touchstone of wisdom and strength."	Marjorie Holmes

"A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them."	John C. Maxwell
"A man with a half volition goes backwards and forwards, and makes no way on the smoothest road; a man with a whole volition advances on the roughest, and will reach his purpose, if there be even a little worthiness in it. The man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder - a waif, a nothing, a no man. Have a purpose in life and having it, throw such strength of mind and muscle into your work as God has given you."	Thomas Carlyle
"A religious man is a person who holds God and man in one thought at one time, at all times, who suffers harm done to others, whose greatest passion is compassion, whose greatest strength is love and defiance of despair."	Abraham Joshua Heschel
"A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks."	Thomas Jefferson
"A strong positive attitude will create more miracles than any wonder drug."	Patricia Neal
"A wise man ought always to follow the paths beaten by great men, and to imitate those who have been supreme, so that if his ability does not equal theirs, at least it will savor of it. Let him act like the clever archers who, designing to hit the mark which yet appears too far distant, and knowing the limits to which the strength of their bow attains, take aim much higher than the mark, not to reach by their strength or arrow to so great a height, but to be able with the aid of so high an aim to hit the mark they wish to reach."	Niccolo Machiavelli
"All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me. . . . You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you. "	Walt(er) Elias Disney
"Anyone who does not feel sufficiently strong in memory should not meddle with lying."	Michel Eyquem de Montaigne
"As long as we think we can save ourselves by our own will power, we will only make the evil in us stronger than ever."	Heini Arnold

"Build for your team a feeling of oneness, of dependence on one another and of strength to be derived by unity."	Vincent Thomas "Vince" Lombardi
"Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak, and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid, one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat, and humble and gentle in victory."	Douglas MacArthur
"Certain souls seem hard because they are capable of strong feelings, and they sometimes go to rather extreme lengths; their apparent unconcern and cruelty are but ways, known only to themselves, of feeling more strongly than others."	Marquis de Sade
