I learned many lessons from my first race with my heroes. I learned it was easier to breathe when I cried, so I cried often and without shame. I learned that a teammate's faith in you can propel you up any mountain. I learned that winning requires an entirely different mind-set than not losing. I learned that the best teams in the world share not only their strengths but also their weaknesses. I learned that you don't inspire your teammates by showing them how amazing you are. You inspire them by showing them how amazing they are.
Robyn BenincasaThe key quality all successful people share is the ability to inspire, to transfer our passion to other people and to bring them along with us in pursuit of our vision.

John BurdettThe canyon country does not always inspire love. To many it appears barren, hostile, repellent - a fearsome mostly waterless land of rock and heat, sand dunes and quicksand, cactus, thornbrush, scorpion, rattlesnake, and agaraphobic distances.

Try to ignore the vultures. Pray frequently.

Zach AnnerThere is a way of living that has a certain grace and beauty. It is not a constant race for what is next, rather, an appreciation of that which has come before.

This is the quality of life that I believe in.

James Kellerin most important ways, leaders of the future will need the traits and capabilities of leaders throughout history: an eye for change and a steadying hand to provide both vision and reassurance that change can be mastered, a voice that articulates the will of the group and shapes it to constructive ends, and an ability to inspire by force of personality while making others feel empowered to increase and use their own abilities.
Rosabeth Moss KanterAccess to knowledge is the superb, the supreme act of truly great civilizations. Of all the institutions that purport to do this, free libraries stand virtually alone in accomplishing this mission. No committee decides who may enter, no crisis of body or spirit must accompany the entrant. No tuition is charged, no oath sworn, no visa demanded.

If I inspire awe, it is because I am in awe of you and the possibilities that dwell in you.
