Lauren Myracle Quotes

Anyone who proposes to do good must not expect people to roll stones out of his way, but must accept his lot calmly if they even roll a few more on it.

The person who lets them get you down, any kind of problem, is the person that fades out.

That's the way I feel.

The struggle goes on. The victory is in the struggle, for me. And I accepted that a long time ago.

Nobody's going to do your life for you. You have to do it yourself, whether you're rich or poor, out of money or raking it in, the beneficiary of ridiculous fortune or terrible injustice.

It's up to you to decide to stay parked there or to turn around and drive out.

Life always has a bit of a challenge in front of you, and that's what makes you fight for it.

Don't let ups and downs leave you down and out.
