I like "Never, ever, ever quit" by Winston Churchill.
I just went out to try to find a good one I'd never heard before.
I like this one.
"Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever." Lance Armstrong

Another good one that can apply to our business.
"The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength,
not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will."
Vincent T. Lombardi

Thanks, Linda. Competition is one very tough thing that most businessmen face. There are times when this very thing pulls someone down because it also calls for all evil. I want to let everyone know that it will never make us less a businessman if we just mind our own business and forget about pulling others down.
?If you're not making mistakes, you're not taking risks, and that means you're not going anywhere. The key is to make mistakes faster than the competition, so you have more changes to learn and win.?
I can't believe that i have missed this thread.
I have several on my office walls. Here are a few.
The will to win means nothing, The will to prepare to win means everything.
My grandfather. (also my favorite)

Kind of along the lines of Einstein, but i learned this first...
To achieve something that has never been achieved before you must do something that has never been done before...

I like work; it Fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.

The first step towards success in any occupation is to become interested in it.
However:
There are days when it takes all you've got just to keep up with the losers.

I really like this one:
"It's not what you think you are, but what you think - you are!"
We should not try to flatter ourselves (humility) or conversely, be just pessimistic. In reality, what one tends to dwell on is a good indication as to the person's true nature. Business and in general life, this quote helps to keep positive, no matter the obstacles; to focus on the positive, face to the wind ... and you usually end up where you're looking.
Hope you guys/gals find it useful too.

I've always been partial to this one which is my own:
"Action is great thing that escapes most people. Good ideas are a dime a dozen. Good actions are few and far between. Which one do you have?"
Feel free to use when and wherever.
