“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”
Maya Angelou
“Courage is not having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don’t have the strength.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Hi Charles,
Like Erica, I would also like to thank you for sharing the three inspirational quotes.
In my post at http://soundeagle.wordpress.com/2017/10/18/the-quotation-fallacy/, I also quoted Winston Churchill: “True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information.”
May you all have a lovely weekend!

I am not such a fan of Churchill but the first one is so good I would like to link back to it on my next post. Is that okay?

I love both quotes and I have my own too! “Never give up, Never give in, and Never surrender…to defeat” Carry on no matter what, because the best is yet to be!
