"Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward. They may be beaten, but they may start a winning game."
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe -

"Often the difference between a successful man and a failure is not one's better abilities or ideas but the courage that one has to bet on his ideas, to take a calculated risk -- and act."
- Maxwell Maltz -

"A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself."

"Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery, by doubling our joy, and dividing our grief."
- Joseph Addison -

"There is no distance too far between friends, for friendship gives wings to the heart."
- Kathy Kay Benudiz -

"There are three sorts of friendships which are advantageous, and three which are injurious. Friendships with the upright, friendships with the sincere, and friendships with the well informed are advantageous. Friendships with those who flatter, friendships with those of weak principles, and friendships with those who talk cleverly are injurious. "
- Confucius -
