• If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

  ~ William E. Hickson quotes

  Famous Quotes on: Try

• There is a difference between wishing for a thing and being ready to receive it. No one is ready for a think until he believes he can acquire it. The state of mind must be belief, not mere hope or wish. Open-mindedness is essential for belief. Closed minds do not inspire faith, courage and belief.”

  ~ Napoleon Hill quotes

• You've got to think about the big things while your doing small things, so that all the small things go in the right direction.

  ~ Alvin Toffler quotes

  Inspirational Quotes on: Think, Doing, Right

• My understanding is that every aspect of the self, every voice, has its own innate wisdom; that if we would simply allow every voice to be heard, to be appreciated, and to be honored, we as human beings would live a much healthier, happier and joyful life; that by denying or suppressing any aspect we are creating a problem both for the self and for others.

  ~ Zen Master Dennis Genpo Merzel quotes
