    Hey guys, what are some motivational quotes that you know or have heard that have helped you along your journeys. Certainly they are not life savers but sometimes a little wisdom can go a long way. I really like Woody Allen's quote, "80% of success is showing up". What are some quotes that you would like to share that have been influential to you.
