Quotes I Love: Why quitting is not an option

This quote seems particularly appropriate as I have many well-meaning friends and family who seem compelleted to chime in whenever I hurt myself biking. So here’s a great quote, from famous cyclist Lance Armstrong that so clearly and completely describes my point of view, “Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.”
-Lance Armstrong (American Cyclist, b.1971)

Quotes I Love!: Choose Your Mind

This post marks the commencement of my new category: Quotes I Love! Similar in form and function to the “Stuff I Love!” section, these little posts will be a placeholder for including my very favorite quotations.

“From the backstabbing co-worker to the meddling sister-in-law, you are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become destroyers of life.” — Anais Nin
