  1. The person who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.  Chinese Proverb

  3. It’s too big a world to be in competition with everybody else, the only person I have to get better than is who I am right now…Sherman Potter, Colonel, U.S. Army, Mash 4077
  4. You accomplish victory step by step, not by leaps and bounds.  Lyn St. James, race car driver
  5. A man/woman should never be ashamed to own that he has been in the wrong, which is but saying that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.  Alexander Pope (1688-1744) English Poet
