more to live by and train with

came across some quotes today.

It is defeat that turns bone to flint, gristle to muscle-it is defeat that makes men invincible-Henry Ward Beecher

Tour De France bicycling king Lance Armstrong perhaps said it best with the following words:

"Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever. That surrender, even the smallest act of giving up, stays with me. So when I feel like quitting, I ask myself, which would I rather live with?"

"I hated every minute of training, but I said, Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion." muhammad ali
