Sasha Azevedo quotes (American Actress, Athlete and Model)
“The ability to play the clarinet is the ability to overcome the imperfections of the instrument. There's no such thing as a perfect clarinet, never was and never will be.”
Jack Brymer quotes
“Goals are a means to an end, not the ultimate purpose of our lives. They are simply a tool to concentrate our focus and move us in a direction. The only reason we really pursue goals is to cause ourselves to expand and grow. Achieving goals by themselves will never make us happy in the long term; it's who you become, as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals, that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.”
Anthony Robbins quotes (American advisor to leaders)
“The superior man makes the difficulty to be overcome his first interest; success comes only later”
Confucius quotes (China's most famous teacher, philosopher, and political theorist, 551-479 BC)
