Truth and Consequences

Another good one from Bennyblog. I think this post says it all:

"Son, part of getting a second chance is taking responsibility for the mess you made in the first place..." ~ Jack Bauer, Season 1 of 24

“Adversity introduces a man to himself.” ~ Anonymous

"You still have a life, Jack. You wanna be a real hero, here's what you do. You get back down there and you put the pieces together. You find a way to forgive yourself for what happened to your wife. You make things right with your daughter, and you go on serving your country. That'd take some real guts." ~ George Mason, Season 2 of 24

"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. ~ Ambrose Redmoon

"Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance the next time." ~ Og Mandino

"All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune make for a finer and nobler type of manhood." ~ President Theodore Roosevelt

"The soul would have no rainbow had the eyes no tears." ~ John Vance Cheney

"Life is mostly froth and bubble, but two things stand like stone, kindness in another’s trouble and courage in your own." ~ Princess Diana

"Be thankful if your job is a little harder than you like. A razor can’t be sharpened on a piece of velvet." ~ Unknown

"However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names." ~ Henry David Thoreau
