Don't give up just because of what someone said. Use it as motivation to push harder.

If we grow weary and give up, the goal remains for someone else to achieve.

It's not where you start or even what happens to you along the way that's important. What is important is that you persevere and never give up on yourself.

The main reason for people's lack of success is their willingness to give up what they want most of all, for what they want right now!

Success is like pumping an old well handle. You have to pump a very long time before you get water. But don't give up or you will have to start all over again.

I'm not gonna give up, shut up, or let up, until I'm taken up... as a matter of fact, I'm just getting warmed up.

This I do know beyond any reasonable doubt. Regardless of what you are doing, if you pump long enough, hard enough and enthusiastically enough, sooner or later the effort will bring forth the reward.

Regardless of your lot in life, you can build something beautiful on it.

Those that think that wealth is the proper thing for them cannot give up their revenues; those that seek distinction cannot give up the thought of fame; those that cleave to power cannot give the handle of it to others. While they hold their grasp of those things, they are afraid of losing them. When they let them go, they are grieved and they will not look at a single example, from which they might perceive the folly of their restless pursuits - such men are under the doom of heaven.

The scene that made me furious was watching Padme, a woman who just gave birth to two beautiful children, just giving up the will to live.
