• Aim So High You'll Never Be Bored..
•   The greatest waste of our natural
  resources
• is the number of people who never achieve
  their potential.
• Get out of that slow lane.
• Shift into that fast lane.
• If you think you can't, you won't.
• If you think you can,
• there's a good chance you will.
• Even making the effort
• will make you feel like a new person.
• Reputations are made by searching
• for things that can 't be done
• and doing them.
• Aim low boring.
• Aim high soaring.
