Random Quotes |

The test of a man is the fight that he makes, the grit that he daily shows; the way that he stands on his feet and takes fates numerous bumps and blows. A coward can smile when theres naught to fear and nothing his progress bars, but it takes a man to stand up and cheer when the other fellow stars. It isnt the victory after all, but the fight that a brother makes. The man who, driven against the wall, still stands erect and takes the blows of fate with his head held high, bleeding and bruised and pale. Hes the man wholl win in the by and by, for he isnt afraid to fail. Its the bumps you get and the shocks, you get and the jolts that your courage stands; the hours of sorrow and vain regrets, the prize that escapes your hand that tests your metal and proves your worth. It isnt the blows that you deal, its the blows you take on this good old earth that show if your stuff is real.
