If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.
We may go down, but we will take a world with us.
Even against the greatest of odds, there is something in the human spirit - a magic blend of skill, faith, and valor - that can lift men from certain defeat to incredible victory.
I will try one hundred times to get up, and if I fail one hundred times. If I fail and I give up, will I ever get up? No! If I fail I’ll try again, and again and again. But I want to tell you it’s not the end.
The world belongs to those who persevere.
Nothing can stop you until you choose to be stopped
I'd rather die like a man, than live like a coward
A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.
Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance. Those that walk with vigor, three hours a day, will pass in seven years a space equal to the circumference of the globe.
A winner is a dreamer who never gives up
On and on you will hike. And I know you'll hike far and face up to your problems whatever they are.
Tough times never last, but tough people do. You might add, "You're tougher than you give yourself credit for."
I can undertake and persevere even without hope of success.
Great ambition is the passion of a great character.
There is no final victory, as there is no final defeat. There is just the same battle. To be fought, over and over again. So toughen up, bloody toughen up.
Life doesn't retreat.
A person who refuses to give up will always succeed eventually.
You have not failed until you quit trying.
Never give up. In the end it'll all be worth it.
The joy of a strong nature is as cloudless as its suffering is desolate.
They thought that the bullets would silence us, but they failed.
Keep a little fire burning; however small, however hidden.
I'd rather die standing than live on my knees.
I was born for a storm and a calm does not suit me.
Only strong personalities can endure history, the weak ones are extinguished by it.
