"Athlete's Inspiration: No one is 100% every day, but
how you strive on the days you are less than 100% dictates
your hall of fame status." -- Anon
"Attention to detail is the very soul of discipline."-- Joseph
Conrad
"The only certain means of success is to render more and
better service than is expected of you, no matter what your
task may be. This is a habit followed by all successful people
since the beginning of time. Therefore I say the surest way to
doom yourself to mediocrity is to perform only the work for
which you are paid. "--Og Mandino, The Greatest Miracle in the
World, 1975
"There is no point at which you can say, 'Well, I'm successful
now. I might as well take a nap.' " -- Carrie Fisher
"Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor
both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love,
that is the soul of genius." -- Mozart
"Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way
we see them." -- Leo Tolstoy
"The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two
words when one will do." -- Thomas Jefferson
"Always strive for perfection. If we strive only for
excellence we will achieve only mediocrity. We can never
achieve perfection; but if we strive for perfection we can
achieve excellence." -- Copyright © 2000 Fritz Gisler
"It is what you learn after you know it all that counts." --
John Wooden
"Excellence is in the details. Give attention to the details
in everything you do and excellence will come." -- Perry
Sexton
"There is no such thing as an insignificant contribution." --
