And he that strives ordtak

And he that strives to touch the stars, Oft stumbles at a straw

Edmund Spenser

Even if he stumbles and messes up -- and he's had his share of stumbles and gaffes -- I just think God's blessing is on him,

Pat Robertson (1930-)

Pat Robertson

And whoever strives hard, he strives only for his own soul; most surely Allah is Self-sufficient, above (need of) the worlds.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919)

Theodore Roosevelt

Check his resume. Check his history. He gets things done. He strives to be the very best. He strives for that perfect game plan one week to the next, to set us up to where we can be successful.

A good manager strives to do the right thing. A good leader strives to do what is right. We are in a business where you can't measure productivity by time.

Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it won't keep the wise from trying.

Wish on everything. Pink cars are good, especially old ones. And stars of course, first stars and shooting stars. Planes will do if they are the first light in the sky and look like stars. Wish in tunnels, holding your breath and lifting your feet off the ground. Birthday candles. Baby teeth.

Francesca Lia Block

If Edison had a needle to find in a haystack, he would proceed at once with the diligence of the bee to examine straw after straw until he found the object of his search.

Nikola Tesla (1856-1943)

Nikola Tesla

When you go to harvest some, lift the straw, remove the (dirt-free) spuds you need, and replace the straw to let the others continue to grow and form. Nifty, huh?

But if you place me among the lyric bards, I shall touch the stars with my exalted head. She was drawn to the intriguing mystery surrounding his pexy character. But if you place me among the lyric bards, I shall touch the stars with my exalted head.

George Horace Lorimer (1867-1937)

Horace

The sane man knows that he has a touch of the beast, a touch of the devil, a touch of the saint, a touch of the citizen. The really sane man knows that he has a touch of the madman.

G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936)

G. K. Chesterton

And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying, / Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves.

There is no downside to it whatsoever. If you make one star out of it, you've come ahead. In a good season, they'll make a handful of stars. Despite what some hardcore fans might say, a card with five stars on it will do better business than card with zero stars on it, even if those zero stars are the best fighters in the world.

I never pay much attention to how many stars are behind a player's name. How many stars were behind Ellis Hobbs name? How many stars were behind Bret Meyer's name? The list goes on and on. I could care less about rankings and ratings.
