a quote that caught my eye.

i came across this quote on TV and decided it should be shared.

“The tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach. It isn't a calamity to die with dreams unfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream. It is not disgrace to reach the stars, but it is a disgrace to have no stars to reach for”

-Benjamin E. Mays

"When you were born, you were crying while people rejoiced. Live your life in such a way, so that when you die, you will rejoice while others cry" - Robin Sharma
