I have missed more the 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot...and I have missed. I failed over and over and over again in my life and that's precisely why I succeed.
~Michael Jordan

ive got a lot of fav...and heres a nice one:

without pain, we would not experience love.
without silence, we could not appreciate our words.
without weakness,our strength would be obsolete.
without tears, our laughter would never be heard.
although we may all face hardships in our life,
we must remember that serenity is born through strife.
