What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments,
but what is woven into the lives of others.
- Pericles
When people get caught up with that which is right
and they are willing to sacrifice for it,
there is no stopping point short of victory.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice,
and is never the result of selfishness.
- Napoleon Hill
Be unselfish.
That is the first and final commandment for those who
would be useful and happy in their usefulness.
If you think of yourself only, you cannot develop because
you are choking the source of development,
which is spiritual expansion through thought for others.
- Charles William Eliot
He who would accomplish much must sacrifice much.
- James Allen
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
- Anonymous
