2.the world is round,and the places which may seem like the end,may also be the begining(how relevant in case of all iim aspirants)
3.the mode by which the inevitable comes to an end is effort.
#4.the problem with the world is tht fools an fanatics r so sure abt themselves,but wiser people r so full of doubts!!!!!1

To understand the heart and mind of a person, look not at what he has already achieved, but at what he aspires to do.

By Khalil Gibran

[sRiLu.]

on adversity Roosevelt said....
It is not the critic who counts,
nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be with those timid souls
who know neither victory nor defeat.....

The toughest part of getting to the top of the ladder, is getting through the crowd at the bottom....yours truly..

Some of my fav Abraham Lincoln quotes

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.

The probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just.

When you have got an elephant by the hind leg, and he is trying to run away, it's best to let him run.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.

'Tis better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.
When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad, and that is my religion.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.

I read this poem in class ten n kept it with me since then. whenever i have been down i just pick it up n read it....lines which have never failed me

If
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;


If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;


If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";


If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!


--Rudyard Kipling
