I love quotes. A friend of mine gave me a quote book called Wings of Silver - here are some excerpts.
"The grinding that would wear away to nothing a lesser stone, merely serves to give luster to a diamond."
"Life is never so bad at its worst that it is impossible to live; it is never so good at it's best that it is easy to live."

"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." - Confucius
