Instead Quotations

Ralph Waldo Emerson Quote
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Henri Nouwen

Lawrence G. Lovasik

The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.
Theodore Roosevelt

The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. If you don't, life controls you.
Tony Robbins
