Quotes - Part 1

Three quotes i enjoyed reading today morning, personal fav is the one by Dan Coats of the three:


If a man has any greatness in him, it comes to light - not in one flamboyant boat, but in the ledger of his daily work
-Beryl Markham


Patriotism is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.
-Adlai E. Stevenson


Character cannot be summoned at the moment of crisis if it has been squandered by years of compromise and rationalization. The only testing ground for the heroic is the mundane. The only preparation for that one profound decision which can change a life, or even a nation, is those hundreds of half-conscious, self-defining, seemingly insignificant decisions made in private. Habit is the daily battleground of character
-Dan Coats
