"You gain strength, courage and confidence 

by every experience in which you 

really stop to look fear in the face.  

You are able to say to yourself, 

I lived through this horror.  

I can take the next thing that comes along.  

You must do the thing you think you cannot do."

-Eleanor Roosevelt
