I'm looking for some inspirational quotes.
This is the background. I make a bracelet that has a persoanlized quote on the outside and id info on the inside.
I have a customer who had cancer and is now a triathlete. She wants help fidning a quote to put on the outside that will reflect what she has been through.
I had thought something from Lance would be good but I haven't found the right thing yet.
The quote can be no longer than 60 but I prefer less than 40 characters.
Anyone?
Thanks!!!!

There are a bunch on the RoadID web site.

Sorry they're all caps, but I just cut and pasted. Longer ones are at the end. Some are not appropriate, but some are inspirational.

Silver.. I dunno why but with what your friend's been thru .. the name that popped into my head was Helen Keller.
Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
It's wonderful to climb the liquid mountains of the sky. Behind me and before me is God and I have no fears.
While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.
My favourite quote is by Anaïs Nin, of all people:
"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage".
I like it because it doesn't pass judgement on you if you're feeling cowardly :) , just says that life will get bigger as you feel more up to it.
These are wonderful! Please keep them coming. I'm adding them to my list.
Actually though she's picked out our phrase. She said that she wants it to say:
"Live like you were dying"
from Tim McGraw's song:
From the album "Live Like You Were Dying"
He said,
"I was in my early forties
With a lot of life before me
And a moment came that stopped me on a dime
I spent most of the next days
Looking at the x-rays
Talkin 'bout the options
And talkin 'bout sweet time..."
I asked him,
"When it sank in
That this might really be the real end
How's it hit you
When you get that kind of news?
Man, what'd you do?"
He said:
"I went skydiving
I went Rocky Mountain climbing,
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fu Manchu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I'd been denying."
And he said,
"Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dying."
He said,
"I was finally the husband
That most of the time I wasn't
And I became a friend a friend would like to have
And all of a sudden going fishin'
Wasn't such an imposition
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
I finally read the Good Book, and I
Took a good, long, hard look
At what I'd do if I could do it all again
And then...
I went skydiving
I went Rocky Mountain climbing
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fu Manchu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I'd been denying."
And he said,
"Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dying...
Like tomorrow was a gift
And you've got eternity
To think about
What you'd do with it
What could you do with it
What did I do with it?
What would I do with it?
Skydiving
I went Rocky mountain climbing
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fu Manchu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I watched an eagle as it was flying."
And he said,
"Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dying
To live like you were dying
To live like you were dying."
silver that is beautiful.
what beautiful words tim mcgraw wrote.
moved me to tears.
