'Inspirational Quotes'

I'm gonna do the complete lit student thing with you guys and post some quotes to hopefully lift up the mood and give some encouragement to the class. I've noticed we've been stressed out lately with the A levels about 21 days away. Hope it helps! If it doesn't, then just skip this post =P.



If you do not hope, you will not find what is beyond your hopes. -St. Clement of Alexandra


He who hesitates is lost. -Proverb [Just chiong for the A's. Like SK says, if you've time to worry, you'd be better off using that time to study]


Knowing is not enough; we must apply.Willing is not enough; we must do. -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


We are still masters of our fate.We are still captains of our souls. -Winston Churchill


Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. -Ralph Waldo Emerson [Getting enthu about A's is a long shot isn't it? LOL. At least try lah, we only go through it once]


Winning isn't everything, but wanting to win is. -Vince Lombardi



It is not work that kills men, it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more on a man than he can bear. But worry is rust upon the blade. It is not movement that destroys the machinery, but friction. -Henry Ward Beecher


It is the trouble that never comes that causes the loss of sleep. -Chas. Austin Bates



It is idle to dread what you cannot avoid. -Publius Syrus



You don’t have to get it right, you just have to get it going -Unknown




And for all those like me, the ultimate procrastinators...




Laziness is the mother of all evils. -Sophocles



Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs - Henry Ford



There are a million ways to lose a work day, but not even a single way to get one back. -Tom DeMarco and Timothy Lister



You may delay, but time will not. ~Benjamin Franklin



Procrastination is opportunity's assassin. ~Victor Kiam



A year from now you may wish you had started today. ~Karen Lamb



Putting off an easy thing makes it hard. Putting off a hard thing makes it impossible. ~George Claude Lorimer



Okok, enough flooding of quotes. Hope it helps (for those who actually have the patience to read through all these quotes... I salute you~ =D).

Anyways, Good luck to everybody, and remember to look after your health! The weather nowadays is practically sadistic, and the perfect conditions to get sick, so be careful =).

~Pammy
