Your favorite inspirational quote?

[soccerchick]

Hi,
I'm looking for a cheap, but creative way to decorate my classroom. I'd like to put up some more inspirational quotes. My DD will Sizzix the letters for me and I'll put them as a border around the room. I have lots of good ones from literature and sports, but was wondering if any of you would care to share yours?

I know there's a diser w/ one I really like in her/his siggy: "Prepare your child for the path, not the path for your child." I'm going to put that on my BTS night material.

thanks for sharing!

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there." I think that was Will Rogers; it is on a button on my bulletin board at school--I'll let you know for sure next week.

God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things I cannot change...
the Courage to change the things I can...
and Wisdome to know the difference...
