Famous quotes containing the words survivor, series and/or match:

“I look on trade and every mechanical craft as education also. But let me discriminate what is precious herein. There is in each of these works an act of invention, an intellectual step, or short series of steps taken; that act or step is the spiritual act; all the rest is mere repetition of the same a thousand times.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Ive noticed over the years that kids who are allowed to be emotionally honest develop a genuineness that more repressed kids dont ever seem to acquire. Their words match their facial expressions. Their actions match their words, and they relate from a position of strength.”
