My Favourite Poems
The more you sweat in practice,
the less you bleed in battle!
Asking whether machines can think
is like asking whether submarines can swim.
(Most of which were not written by me)
The words of others may inspire you, but it's only your desire which can first ignite the fire, that burns so bright it will guide you through
the darkest night.
"The greatest use of life is to spend it
in pursuit of something
that will outlast it."
Why should I limit myself by reaching for the sky when there are footprints on the moon.
"It's only those who would risk going too far who will ever find out how far they can go" "For how can you know what your limits are until you exceed them"
"What you do speaks far louder than anything you may say"
"Those who try and fail are infinitely more likely to succeed
than those who fail to try.
"A goal without a plan is just a wish."
"Why not go out on a limb,
isn't that where the fruit is?".
If you settle for less than you deserve, you will end up with less than you settled for.
"I may fail a thousand times but I only need to succeed once"
"A diamond is merely a piece of coal
that thrived under pressure."
"Best friends are like diamonds, precious and rare.
False friends are like leaves,
found everywhere."
"Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway"
"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it
is like wrapping a present
and not giving it."
"Give thanks for a little and you'll be blessed with a lot"
"Always be a first-rate version of yourself,
instead of a second-rate version of somebody else."
"If you don't run your own life, somebody will run it for you."
"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on
for so long in the first place."
"You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
So grab your oars and discover more
of what your God given destiny
has in store."
