"Victory is won not in miles but in inches. Win a little now, hold your ground, and later, win a little more."
– Louis L'Amour

Louis L'Amour, the author known for his pulp westerns, wrote more than 100 novels in his lifetime. Born in North Dakota in 1908 as Louis LaMoore, he worked across the southwestern U.S. on a string of backbreaking jobs including longshoreman, elephant handler, and cattle skinner. He saw his writing as akin to telling tales by a campfire and wanted to be remembered simply as a good storyteller. He won the Medal of Freedom in 1984 and died in 1988.

"You miss 100% of the shots you never take."
– Wayne Gretsky

Wayne Gretsky, the Canadian hockey champion known as the Great One, held 61 NHL records when he retired in 1999. He was born in Brantford, Ontario, and was a prodigy on the ice, competing with ten-year-olds when he was six and playing professionally by 16. He hit the big time playing for the Edmonton Oilers. When he was traded to the L.A. Kings in 1988, Canadians burned the Oilers' owner in effigy. In 1999, ESPN named Gretsky the fifth-greatest athlete of the 20th century.

Dying Fetus inspires me

Especially these lyrics:
"Beating on the face of broken trust, all I want is a chance to f*ck your life up
You had to turn your back on all we did, and I won't stop until you're dead!!"

Especially these lyrics:
"Beating on the face of broken trust, all I want is a chance to f*ck your life up
You had to turn your back on all we did, and I won't stop until you're dead!!"

Wise words. Wise words indeed.

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before.

[sagi58]

Every breath you take and every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take
I'll be watchin' you

Every single day and every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I'll be watchin' you

Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.

Nice touch!!

Something which I keep going back to when I feel lazy/demotivated enough to not do something which I should be doing. Don't know why or how, but it helps me get in gear immediately.
