Keep moving forward!
Quote
If I’ve learned one lesson from all that’s happened to me, it’s that there is no such thing as the biggest mistake of your existence. There’s no such thing as ruining your life. Life’s a pretty resilient thing, it turns out.
Sophie Kinsella
Success and failure
Quote
When you take risks you learn that there will be times when you succeed and there will be times when you fail, and both are equally important.
Ellen DeGeneres
The ambivalence of crisis
Quote
“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word ‘crisis.’ One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger–but recognize the opportunity.
John F. Kennedy
To the good life
Quote
Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives… And to the “good life”, whatever it is and wherever it happens to be.
Hunter S. Thompson
Don't dwell in the past

It’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.
Lewis Carroll
Prepare yourself
Quote
Only someone who is well prepared has the opportunity to improvise.

Go out there!
Quote
The truth is that the world is full of dragons, and none of us are as powerful or cool as we’d like to be. And that sucks. But when you’re confronted with that fact, you can either crawl into a hole and quit, or you can get out there, take off your shoes, and Bilbo it up.
Patrick Rothfuss
Just take the next step
Quote
“I can’t see a way through” said the boy.
“Can you see your next step?”
“Yes.”
“Just take that” said the horse.
Charlie Mackesy
Get to work!
Quote
Amateurs sit and wait for inspiration. The rest of us just get to work!
Stephen King
