Failure isn't in not reaching your goal but in having no goal to reach.

Failure isn't in not reaching your goal but in having no goal to reach.

It is not your environment, it is you- the quality of your mind, the integrity of your soul and the determination of your will that will decide your future and shape your life.

Whatever you do, do it so well that people looking on will feel that the task was reserved especially for you by God Himself.

It must be borne in mind that the tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach.

The creation of the spiritual was no accident. It was a creation born of necessity, so that the slave might more adequately adjust himself to the conditions of the New World.

I believe everyone is born into the world to do something unique and distinctive.
