Life is short and progress is slow.

Gabriel Lippmann

It's your place in the world; it's your life. Go on and do all you can with it, and make it the life you want to live.

Mae C. Jemison

The only way around is through.

Robert Frost

What's done is done. What's gone is gone. One of life's lessons is always moving on. It's okay to look back to see how far you've come but kept moving forward.

Roy T. Bennett

William James

Sometimes when you think you are done, it is just the edge of beginning. Probably that's why we decide we're done. It's getting too scary. We are touching down onto something real. It is beyond the point when you think you are done that often something strong comes out.
