“Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.”

“What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.”

“Don't leave a stone unturned. It's always something, to know you have done the most you could.”

“Take the adventure, heed the call, now ere the irrevocable moment passes! 'Tis but a banging of the door behind you, a blithesome step forward, and you are out of your old life and into the new!”

“Live for something! Do good and leave behind you a monument of virtue that the storm of time can never destroy. Write your name in kindness, love, and mercy on the hearts of the thousands you come in contact with, year by year, and you will never be forgotten. Your name, your deeds, will be as legible on the hearts you leave behind, as the stars on the brow of evening. Good deeds will shine as the stars of heaven.”

“Open your eyelids, will you all, and let your brains leave sleep behind.”
Pandite sultis genas et corde relinquite somnum.

“The thing about leaving something behind for the last time is that you rarely realize you're doing it.”

“Remember if people talk behind your back, it only means you are two steps ahead.”

“Your past is a skeleton walking one step behind you, and your future is a a skeleton walking one step in front of you. Maybe you don't wear a watch, but your skeletons do, and they always know what time it is.”

“You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone.”
