"And all the waters
Of all the streams
Sang in my veins
That summer day"

~Last stanza of "The Waking", by Theodore Roethke


"Excellence is not a singular act but a habit. You are what you do repeatedly."

~Shaquille O'Neal


"Fall seven times, stand up eight."

~Japanese Proverb


Experiencing the present purely is being empty and hollow; you catch grace as a man fills his cup under a waterfall.

~Annie Dillard
