"Let me tell you something you already know. The world isn't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody can hit as hard as life. But it isn't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you have to be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you aren't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that isn't you. You're better than that"!
- from 'Rocky Balboa'
