Aim for the moon; even if you miss you'll be up amongst the stars! Not sure where I first heard it but it always inspires me.
Also:
If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you always got. If you want something different, do something different!

My favorite quote is this, "You cannot change other people, only yourself and how you deal with them"...I think I heard it from someone else. Don't know who wrote it.
Who said you can't judge a book by its cover?

can i ask you something?? Aim for the moon...What if we realize our true strength and find it uncapable of doing so??
I mean..I know my abilities and i know that i'm no genius.. So, i feel kinda scared aiming for something out of my league..

Everybodys' "moon" is at a different level - read it as "do your best and be proud of what you (personally) can achieve" rather than believing that you can only reach the moon if you are a genius. You should always aim for the best that you can do - push yourself to reach your full capability.
