I don't think anybody chooses to be an underdog.
But all the love in the world won't save a sinking ship. You have to either bail or jump overboard.
You should never be surprised when someone treats you with respect, you should expect it.
There comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart. So you'd better learn the sound of it. Otherwise you'll never understand what it's saying.
And to know me, as you have discovered, is to love me.
I don't believe in failure, because simply by saying you've failed, you've admitted you attempted. And anyone who attempts is not a failure. Those who truly fail in my eyes are the ones who never try at all. The ones who sit on the couch and whine and moan and wait for the world to change for them.
for once, you believed in yourself. you believed you were beautiful and so did the rest of the world.
Sports is all about money.
The life of entire surrender is a joyous life all along the way.
Life wants you to serve something more than yourself. When you serve something more than yourself, you are served. It's the most ironic thing in the world.
