Mark's Mottos
- "The world is full of people that make excuses for why they cannot do things. Don't be one of them." - me
- "Don't be a dabbler. If you're going to do something, do it well." - me
- "Respect the distance. Do the work." - me
- "I hope that I may always desire more than I can accomplish." - Michelangelo
- "The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short;
but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark." - Michelangelo
- "There is no greater harm than that of time wasted." - Michelangelo
- "Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure ...
than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much,
because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt
