One of my favorites:
We usually see only the things we are looking for- so much so, that we sometimes see them where they are not.

Life inspires, life re-fires, and life perspires. You may not realize it, but everything around you can contain a moment to inspire. When you are inspired you are lighting an extinguished fire within that keeps you going and creating desires. In order to get what you want from life you have to perspire, meaning work hard.
Stephen Chbosky

The depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves. People reveal themselves completely only when they are thrown out of the customary conditions of their life, for only then do they have to fall back on their reserves. - Leon Trotsky

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. ~Henri Nouwen

"You are where you are today because you stand on somebody's shoulders. And wherever you are heading, you cannot get there by yourself. If you stand on the shoulders of others, you have a reciprocal responsibility to live your life so that others may stand on your shoulders. It's the quid pro quo of life. We exist temporarily through what we take, but we live forever through what we give" -- Vernon Jordan, in a speech at Howard University, 2002.

For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much - the wheel, New York, wars and so on - whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man - for precisely the same reasons. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

» I'ts heartbreaking to see many people who merely long for success. They're on a sort of treadmill, plodding along, getting exactly nowhere. They haven't mastered their dreams. They've let their dreams master them, and what makes it so sad is that they don't know why others get where they want to go! - Loretta Young

'Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.' —— Schwarzenegger, Austrian-born bodybuilder, who became an American motion-picture star
