Insurance Agent Forum

[maxreferrals]

Let's get a big thread of great, inspirational quotes for everyone to use. Sort of a "quote bank" to inspire Agents and use. I'll start...

"Worrying is using your imagination to create something you do not want."
-- Abraham-Hicks

[Frank Stastny]

"Do not go where the path may lead, go where there is no path and leave a trail."

Kind of long, but one of my fav's . . .

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, 'press on' has solved, and always will solve, the problems of the human race."

-- Calvin Coolidge

"The difference between success and failure is one more try."

-- Me


I love this thread. I maintain my own little "motivational quote bank."

“The longer I live, the more certain I am that enthusiasm is the little recognized key to success.”

- Frederick Williamson

Inspirational

- - Pressure is the shadow opportunity casts.

- - It is easier to succeed than explain why you failed.

Not inspirational but ones I like (sometimes I can be blunt)

- - When in doubt smile.

- - discretion is raising your eyebrow instead of your voice.

- - answer when angry and it will be the best speech you ever regret.

- - never forget what someone tells you when they are angry.

Miscellaneous

- - He who excuses himself accuses himself

- - save me from the lazy who will not seek the whole truth,
from the scared who fear to face the truth,
from the arrogant who think they know the whole truth

[Frank Stastny]

marcircus,

I especially like the ones in the Miscellaneous category. One more to add:

"One never learns anything while talking."

Thanks,

You might also enjoy this one too (it is kind of related to the "talking" aspect of yours).

The reason people like dogs is because their tails and not their tongues do the wagging.

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. -- Steven Weinberg
