I include some of my favorite quotes here thinking that you too may find inspiration in them!  Do you have favorite quotations?  Send them to me at tclark@toniclarkandassociates.com and I will e-mail you back. 

"All you have to do is decide what to do with the time that is given to you." 

Gandalf/Ian McKellan, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

"When we follow our bliss, there are a thousand unseen helping hands." Joseph Campbell

"When you paddle back out into the ocean after you've ridden a wave to shore,

 you always look for a channel, a space between the waves where the water 

is stiller, flatter.  With surfing, as with so many other things in life, it's not

cheating to look for that calmer place."  Jane Porter

"Courage is believing in yourself in the worst moments, and that is something nobody can teach you. I have never heard of a University of Bravery, but I do know that everyone has it in them to be brave."  El Cordobes

"Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all."

Spoken by Eduard Christoff Philippe Gérard Renaldi, Prince of Genovia, in the movie "The Princess Diaries."

"Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyway."  John Wayne
