You are more than your defeats, and you are more than your achievements. It pays to keep that in mind when pursuing victory and when dealing with defeat.
It is great to win, to achieve, and to excel. And of course, it hurts to lose.
Yet when you abandon your most treasured values in order to win, the prize will be empty. When you discard your very integrity in order to achieve, the achievement will have no real value.
For the value of achievement is not in the achievement itself. The real value of achievement is the way in which it expresses who you are.
Focus on winning, to be sure. Yet be careful not to defeat yourself just so you can claim victory.
Each achievement you pursue is an opportunity to bring out the best that is within you. Do that, and whether you win or lose the battle of the moment, you'll have something of real and lasting value.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. ONly through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars or sailed an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.
When we do the best that we can, we never know what miricle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.
Helen Keller
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!"
Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Posted: 10/25/04 at 9:23amHelen Keller is one of the main reasons I have NO tolerance for whiners. She is close to god-like in my book (followed VERY closely by Annie Sullivan!)
