• Al Pacino (Scent of a woman):

“I always knew what the right path was, without exception I knew…but I never take it…you know why?…it was too damn hard”

• From Eric Thomas Speech to MSU Students video:

“Pain is temporary…it may last for a minute, or an hour, or a day, or even a year…but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place” “If I quit however, it will last forever”

• Sylvester Stallone (Rocky Balboa):

“let me tell you something you already know, the world aint sunshine and rainbows…it is a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there if you let it….you, me, or no body is gonna hit as hard as life…but it aint about how hard you can hit..its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward….That’s how winning is done”

• From Eric Thomas Speech to MSU Students video:

“I am exactly where I want to be because I realize I gotta commit my very being to this thing…I gotta breath it…I gotta eat it….I gotta sleep it…” “Until you get there you will never be as successful in life….but once you get there I guarantee that the world is yours.”
