Quote or something that inspires you (optional):

“Some people follow their dreams, others hunt them down and beat them mercilessly into submission.”

– Neil Kendall

“It is not the critic who counts; not the person who points out how the strong woman stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the woman who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust, sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs; who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends herself in a worthy cause; what at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if she fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that her place shall never be with those souls who neither know victory nor defeat”.

- credited to Theodore Roosevelt with some liberty taken.
