Most Powerful Phrase Ever Said

Today I read Reword by the 37Signals guys, and this line caught my attention:

"The only experience that counts is success."
I disagree.
Failure is a great experience, so that you can avoid it later on!

Oh shit, that's a phrase right there.. :D

There are seven days in the week and someday isn't one of them.


Wake up with determination,go to bed with satisfication.


Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it.The time will pass anyway.


The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.


Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.
 
I personally like these quotes saved in my notebook.

"Failures are often the results of timidity and fears; disappointments are the results of bashfulness; hours of leisure pass away like summer-clouds, therefore, do not waste opportunity of doing good."

"A fool's mind is at the mercy of his tongue and a wise man's tongue is under the control of his mind."

"Hearts of people are like wild beasts. They attach themselves to those who love and train them."

"Only he who has the power to punish can pardon"

"An ignorant person will always overdo a thing or neglect it totally"

"One who imagines himself to be all-knowing will surely suffer on account of his ignorance"

"Obstinacy will prevent you from a correct decision"

"Greed is permanent slavery"

I agree with this more than I can put in words.
 
Great quotes so far guys. Enjoy:

"It is the task of the enlightened not only to ascend to learning and to see the good but to be willing to descend again to those prisoners and to share their troubles and their honors, whether they are worth having or not.

This quote brings me down to earth and gives me a little laugh at the same time.
 
When Thomas Edison's Invention Factory burned down to the ground,
