I love a good inspiring quote!
It seems to me that most people in the DG family attach at least one quote, and often the same one, to every posting.
I think everyone should post their most inspirational quote here for those moments when we are "on the bench" (shout out to CBR) and we need our cheerleaders (each other) to give us a boost, pick us up and remind us that WINNERS PLAY HURT!! (another shout out to CBR)
I have a favorite quote (forget the author thou')
THE DEFINITION OF INSANITY is doing what you've always done and expecting a different outcome!

One of my favorites quotes is from one of Dean's booklets:

Its time to put the fear aside and make my stamp on the world.

I am a hugh fan of Michael Jordan and this is one of my favorite quotes.
I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
Michael Jordan
I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.
