It takes courage to stand up and speak. But it also takes courage to sit down and listen. All of the quotes talk about something that has to deal with you or someone else that you have to help. Make good choices-my mom says that. The phrase from a song that could be used as a great quote would be." "Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire." “We did what we could do to win the game. That's all that we can really take care of, whatever happens on the field. The refs do what they do, and we've got to do our part. It's not our job to do the officiating. It's not the fans' job to do the officiating.”- Troy Polamalu!
If you see someone without a smile, give them yours. I think the most common quote is do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Yes my mom always says what goes around comes around. I think a great quote from a song is And as we wind on down the road
our shadows taller than our soul
there walks a lady we all know
who shines white light and wants to show how everything still turns to gold and if you listen very hard
the tune will come to you at last
when all are one and one is all
to be a rock and not to roll. "led zeppelin" from the song stairway to heaven. Yes, Lance Armstrong once said "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."
It takes courage to stand up and speak but it also takes courage to sit down and listen. I think that means every thing you need to have courage. A quote that my mom always says is if you cant do the time dont do the crime lol :) A song phrase would have to be life is what you make it lol (hannah montana) i dont really watch sports so i dont know any quotes
Those on the top of the mountain didn't fall there. I think that that quote means you should do your best to get to the top. Yes, my mom says what comes around goes around all the time to me. No, I do not. No.
Those on top of the mountain didn’t fall off, this quote simply means try, try and try again, even if you do not succeed, try again. If you fall down, always get back up and try again. Yes, all of my family, and coaches use quotes similar too these all of the time! They also you many more than just what quotes are on the video. Yes, there are many quotes from athletes that are inspiring, David Ortiz once said” everyone on the team has a responsibility, even the bat boy.” Another quote that I find inspiring is, “Every sport pretends to a literature, but people don't believe it of any other sport but their own.” Alistair Cooke said that, and it is one of my favorite quotes.
Do to other's as you would have them do to you. Means to treat other they way you want them to do to you. Yes my parents have quote but i cant remember any and no there is no quotes for athletes i find inspring.
It takes courage to stand up and speak. But it also takes courage to sit down and listen. All of the quotes talk about something that has to deal with you or someone else that you have to help. Mt mom and dad always tell me to Make good choices time after time. I don't know any phrases. I don't watch sports that much.
I like the quote " If you see someone without a smile, give them yours." The meaning of that quote is if you see someone upset or down , make them feel beter and make them smile. I think the most common quote is "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Yes, my parents are always using the quote " What goes around, comes around." No, I realyl dont know any phrases in a song that could be used as a great quote. Yes, Michael Jordan once said , " I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."

If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours. It means that if you see someone sad, make them happy. I'm not sure what the most common quote is. No, not really... Get a good idea and stick with it. Dog it, and work with it until it is done, and done right.-Walt Disney- No... I haven't heard any quotes from any athlete.

I like the quote "those on top of the mountain, didn’t fall there." This means that, it takes hard work to reach your dreams. When you reach a goal, it is because you have strived to get there and it doesn’t fall in your lap. Life is like that because anything that is worth it comes with hard work. We shouldn’t expect things to come easy and if it’s worth having, it’s worth working for and sometimes it will feel like you are climbing a mountain, but you can’t give up. I think the most common quote is “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” My mom say's that all the time and I hear it a lot from adults. My Nunny says “Always finish what you start.” She says that means you can never be called a quitter. I hear a lot of athletes say that they are always “in it to win it.”

Opportunity is often missed because we are broadcasting when we should be tuning in. This quote means people are missing out of stuff when they are talking instead of listening. My mom always says, “Learn from your mistakes because they it will help you in the long run.” One of my coaches always said, “He who has a why to live can bear almost anyhow.” One phrase from a song that could be a quote is, “We don’t have the power but we never say never.” One quote is by Lance Armstrong and he says, “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.”
Sean Riggleman Pd. 4-5
The quote that I chose is those on Top of the Mountain didn’t fall there. It means to never give up and if you keep trying you will succeed. My parents say the exact same thing as what the quote means and they use this quote a lot. The quote is in Forever Young and it is you can die young or you can live forever. One athletic quote is you should never give up if you are either winning or losing. Another one is if you believe in yourself, have dedication and pride and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high, but so are the rewards.
It takes courage to stand up and speak. But it also takes courage to sit down and listen. It means it takes courage to stand up and speak in front of a lot of people, but it also takes courage to sit down and listen to what others have to say. Yes, my parents and grandparents both have quotes that they say, not repeatedly though. There are lots of phrases that I like. Such as: everything happens for a reason. Which hurts the most: saying something and wishing you hadn’t, or saying nothing and wishing you had? Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. You’ll never know how strong you are…until being strong is the only choice you have. There are many, many more. The person who said winning isn’t everything, never won anything –Mia Hamm.

Go with life’s flow like a surf board rider. This means that no matter what comes your way you have to get over and go to the next thing in life. Most of them talk about yourself and how to help it. My grandparents don't really have any quotes that they say a lot. My parents don’t say any quotes either. I don’t know any from a song and I don't have an athlete that has a quote
By Jayce Riley
If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours. This means that if you see someone who is upset or sad then you should smile at them to make them feel better. I think that the most common quote used in this video is do unto others as you would have them do to you. Yes, my parents especially have quoted this to me multiple times. No, I do not know of any phrases from songs that could be used as good quotes. No, there are not any quotes from athletes that I find inspiring.
Those who wish to sing always find a song is the quote that I have selected. This means that you choose your destiny. Yes, bad things can happen to you, and you can blame all your problems on them. But in the end, we decide whether to do something about it and if we really want it, then we will try to accomplish it. The most common quote on here is, do unto others as they would do unto you. My mom and my grandma tell me that all of the time. Also, my mom always tells me what comes around goes around. There is this one song called, "The Show" and in it, it says "life is a maze, and love is a riddle." This could be used as a quote.
-Sarah Marie Topardo
Fourth and Fifth period.
"To lead a symphony you must occasionally turn your back to the crowd". I believe that the quote means if you want to be a leader than you have to stop following the crowd. My grandmother is constantly telling me it takes courage to stand up and speak but it also takes courage to sit down and listen! One quote that I have heard from an athlete was when Jock Sanders a WVU wide out had stated the we got it all, and what he meant by that was they have a great team as long as they can learn to work together.

7th&8th periods
"Some people grumble that roses have thorns, while others are thankful that thorns have roses." I think this means that some people are never happy with what they have. They find something to complain about all the time. Then there are others who are thankful for the smallest thing in their life. I think the most common quote is, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." My mom always says, "If you're gonna do something, do it right the first time so you don't have to do it over again." One thing I've heard in a song is, "Don't give up without a fight." I can't think of anything from any athletes.
"A friend is someone who knows all about you &... loves you just the same."The meaning of this quote is unconditional love.The most common quote is .."do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”My mom frequently say "What comes around goes around."A good quote from a song is ..."Its your love
just does something to me
sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
and if you wonder
about the spell I'm under..
oh, its your love."This quote is from the song Its your Love by Tim McGraw.No, there isn't any quotes that come to mind about athletes.

Refusing to ask for help when you need it is refusing someone the chance to be helpful. This is talking about if you help yourself then you can help others. But they are mostly talking about help you and others. If you steal, cheat, or lie it will come back 10 times worst then before. A quote for a song is never say never. I think that everything is possible as long as you put your mind to it and you put the work and time into it. I think your mind really controls everything from Michael Phelps.
"Do unto others as you would them to do unto you." This means that the way you treat people would be the way they treat you back. If you wanted someone to be nice to you,you would have to be nice to them. Sometimes this does not tkae affect until you have talked to them nicely or the way you want to.The most common thing that all of the quotes have in common is to use your talent wisely or dont be afraid to stand out a little more than everybody else.My parents and freinds always say to follow your dreams and someday they might come true."You are the only acception" is a quote from a song i know.It means that you are the only one that makes your choices in YOUR life and that there is no one else like you out the in world so be the best you can.I don't know of any quotes that an athlete has said that I have heard of.
The quote I selected from the video is "If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours." The most common quote used in the video is probably "What comes around goes around." That is probably the most used quote by my parents or grandparents. One phrase from a song is "All you touch and all you see,
Is all your life will ever be" by Pink Floyd. I don't have very many quotes from athletes that I find inspiring.
4th and 5th

The quote that i pick is that it takes courage to stand up speak as to sit down and listen. All the quotes deal with is about you or someone else that you have to help. My coach used to say all the time that practice makes perfect.No I dont known anty that are in the songs. I dont find any insipring.
To lead a symphony you must occasionally turn your back on the audience means that to be a leader you can’t be a follower to. The most common quote I have heard used from this video is do unto others as you would want them to do unto you. No my family doesn’t really use quotes that much I don’t think. I cannot think of any good quotes from songs. I can’t think of any good quotes from any famous athletes that I find inspiring.
-Cody Brubaker
I selected five of my favorite quotes. It was too hard to select only one. The first quote is, “A flower that follows the sun does so even on cloudy days,” and it means a follower is always a follower even if their leader is not with them. Another quote is “If you accept who you are, then you can start working to become better than you are” and that means there is always room for improvement. The third quote is “A friend is someone who knows all about you, and loves you just the same” and that means friends love you for who you are and there is no reason to change. The fourth quote is “When you think about others, think love. When you think about yourself, think love. Then watch your thoughts transform reality” meaning that love has its own ways and that you should constantly be thinking about others. The final quote is “No day is over if it makes a memory” meaning if any day makes an impact on your life, you will never forget it. The most common quote in this video is “Treat others as you want to be treated”. Yes, my parents, grandparents, coaches, and teachers use quotes repeatedly to get their point across, such as “Practice makes perfect”. Many great quotes from the song ‘Outside Looking In’ by Jordin Pruitt could be used as many quotes. No, I haven’t found any quotes form athletes that are inspiring.

“People don’t get to the top of the mountain by falling there.” I think that quote means that people just don’t get to the top of something just from someone helping you or something just putting you there. People actually take determination and courage and do things themselves. Yes my mom always says, “ the apple don’t fall far from the tree.” No I don’t. No there are no quotes about it.
"Those on top of the mountain, didn't fall there." This means that you have to bust your butt to get better and get what you want in life. It is just not given to you. Opportunity is often missed because we are broadcasting when we should be tuning in. I think that is the quote that is most common. My coach in 5th and 6th grade always told me "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." That reallt motivated me to take more shots when I was open. I don't know any phrases from songs that could be used as quotes. "It does not matter how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up."-Vince Lombardi.
If you accept who you are, then you can start working to become better than you are. This quote means that instead of seeing all the bad things in ourselves we need to accept who we are then try to improve and make ourselves better. I think the most common quote is “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” My parents also tell me this quote. My brother would tell me that “you can do anything that you set your mind to.” I can’t think of a phase from a song that can be a good quote. I do not know of quotes from athletes.
Sarah Cox period2/3
"Do unto others as you would do unto you."- This quote means that you should treat others how you want to be treated. The most common quote is the one i selected because my parents and coach both use this alot. Usually all songs are very inspiration and have a strong meaning behind it and could be very courageous quotes. Believe it or not, but my fav quote is actually from my mom. It's: As simple as it sounds, we all must try to be the best person we can: by making the best choices, by making the most of the talents we've been given.
-Mary Lou Retton
My fav anonymous quote is: Girls are like phones. They love to be held and talked too, but if you press the wrong button, you'll be disconnected.
-McKenna Kelley(: 4/5
I selected the quote "A flower that follows the sun does so on even cloudy days". This means that you have to follow your dreams, even when times get hard. The most common quote in the video is probably "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" because it's the Golden Rule. My mom always says, "Do as I say, not as I do". I think it means to listen to her because she's been through life and doesn't want me to make some of the mistakes she did. Any of Michael Jackson's songs can be used as quotes, haha, but my favorite is from his song 'Why You Wanna Trip on Me?' The quote is "They say I'm different, but they don't understand. There's a bigger problem that is much more in demand. We've got world hunger, not enough to eat, so there's really no time to be trippin' over me.' This means a lot to me because it's SO true. There's no quotes from athletes that inspire me. I'm mostly inspired by singers, well.. Michael Jackson :) Other than that, no one really.
-Carly Suplitaa ! :D

Its better to be alone then to be in bad company. I think this quote means that when your depressed or upset that your alone, its better than being with people who you don't get along with. All of the quotes all resemble eachother how the all are about life and what you go through. Yes my mom always says to me, "What would Jesus do?" A quote from a song I know, is "Lifes what you make it!" -Hannah Montana (: And I don't know sports so no.
If you see someone without a smile, give them yours. This means if you see someone who is depressed or upset smile at them, and try to make them feel better. The most commonly used quote that occurs in the video is "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." My coach constantly says " No pain, no gain." My mom uses the quote " What goes around comes around." A quote from a song is everybody makes mistakes by Hannah Montana. No, I do not know any inspiring quotes from athletes.

it takes courage to stand up but it takes courage to sit down wihitch mean sometimes you need need to stand up for yourself but sometimes you need to sit and listen.my parents dont use any quotes.Even when I'm old and grey, I won't be able to play it, but I'll still love the game-
Michael Jordan
The trouble with most of us is we would rather be ruined by praise than saved by criticism. This means some people would rather people tell them the good things about them and be ruined in the end rather than being told what they are doing wrong and keep getting better. "People always can tell how much work you actually put in"- My Dad. All you touch and all you see,Is all your life will ever be.-Pink Floyd,"Breathe".It's what you learn after you know it all that counts. -John Wooden
Those on top of the mountain didnt fall there. I think that means when someone is trying their best at something and mess up at the top doesnt mean they werent messing up in the middle. Life is like that because anything that is worth it comes with hard work. My coach always says do your best. A great quote from a song says "Everything I do, I do it big". I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed- Michael Jordan.
It takes courage to stand up and speak. But it also takes courage to sit down and listen. All of the qoutes to me sounds like it envolves you or somebody else. Think beforespeaking is what my dad says to me.
If you see someone without a smile, give them yours. This quote to me means if you see someone sad and feeling blue then smile at them to give them some of your happiness. All of the quotes in the video have to do with how to treat others and yourself. My mother and father use the quote “What comes around go around.” I do not know any quotes in songs. Also I cannot think of any quotes made by athletes that I find inspiring.
Those who wish to sing always find a song. This quote meaning of this quote is you choose your destiny yess bad things can happen to you and you can blame all your problems on them, but in the end we decide whether to do something about then to be happy. Yess , my mom has always quoted me a quote. Yes , if hard work pays off then easy work is worthless. Yess , some quotes from athletes are inspiring.

7th & 8th
To lead a symphony, you must occasionally turn your back to the crowd. The most common one is unto to others as you would have them unto to you. My parents always say "You'll never know until you try." A quote from an sports is "Sportsmanship for me is when a guy walks off the court and you really can't tell whether he won or lost, when he carries himself with pride either way."-Jim Courier
JoMarie Bogard
4/5th period
A flower that follows the sun, does so even on cloudy days means even when a lot of things go wrong, still look on the bright side. The most common quote I say was, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Yes, my mother always says the one that is the common one that I used in that last sentence. Don’t stop believing is a quote from a song that could be used as a great quote. The only one who can tell you ‘you can’t is you, and you don’t have to listen. That quote is by Nike.
Not asking anyone to help you is not letting someone with knowledge help you. Most of the quotes all refer to letting someone help you accomplish your goal. My parents and coaches all tell me to make good decisions and to practice whatever you do your hardest and you will be successful. A great quote from a song I think would be : Im a running trackstar running through life chasing my dream". It means that you should never give up on a dream keep chasing it until it happens. "Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships"- Michael Jordan.
Izaiha John 4/5
A quote from the video is it takes courage to stand up and speak, but it also takes courage to sit down and listen. My mom and dad say that if I do well in school that i'll succede in life. No I don't know any phrases from songs that could be used as a great quote. " A lebron team is never desperate" - said Lebron James. "I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." Said Michael Jordan.
“Get a good idea and stay with it. Dog it and work it until it is done, and done right”
-Walt Disney
When Walt Disney said this quote, he meant that when you choose one idea, stick with it until it is complete. It means don’t browse off onto another topic, stick with the same thing until you have finished. When I think about it, I don’t usually hear my grandparents using quotes like the ones in the video, but I do hear my parents using one of the quotes in the video a lot of the time. The quote that they use a lot is “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” The title of a song by Rascal Flats could actually be used as a really good quote which is “Life is a Highway”. A famous quote by an athlete that I really like is by Vince Lombardi. It says “We didn’t lose the game; we just ran out of time.”
Dalton Okel
4th/5th Period
Get a good idea and stay with it. Dog it and work it until it's done, and done right. My mother always says "Winners never cheat and cheaters never win" because she said things need to always be done the right way or not done at all. My grandpa always says, "Live life to the fullest, Love Many, and Laugh often". "Some people want diamond rings, some just want everything, but everything means nothing, if i aint got you" Alicia Keys<3 I think that's a good quote, because the things you have shouldn't mean everything to you, it's the people around you that actually make your life livable, and they are the real things that mean everything to you. I don't really pay that much attention to athletes, but i like the quotes "just do it" by Nike(:
-sammie(:
I think the most common quote my parents and grandparents use is do unto others as you would have them do unto you. The meaning of this is treat people like you would want to be treated.
Those on top the mountain didn't fall there. All of the quotes have to do with you or someonelse. My parents don't really say quotes neither do my granparents. Right now, I can't remeber any songs that could be great quotes, and I don't know any quotes from athletes.
The quote "Those on top of the mountain didn't fall there," means that to do your best and get something right, you have to work at it. You can't just start something and automatically expect yourself to be great at it. I recently started acrobatics and in the beginning I could barely do any of the cool tricks. After five months of practice and very hard work, I can do just as much as the other girls and even more. The most common quote used in the video is "Do unto other as you would have them do unto you," because it is very true and it is the Golden Rule. I hear the quote "What comes around, goes around," alot, although I do not hear many quotes from my parents or grandparents. Sometimes my gram will say "It's in their job description," when I complain about my mean brother, but that's it.
I like the quote “A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.” This means that things can still be known long after they are gone. My mom always tells me “what goes around comes round.” I can’t really think of any song quotes, but I’m sure there are some. I usually find quotes about success and working hard inspiring, they make me want to become a better athlete and person.

"Those on the top of the mountain didn't fall there." I think this means once all the hard work is over, you wont fall. I think the most common quote is do to others as you would have them do to yourself. My dad always saids, "if I used the time I spent playing video games doing something like playing guitar, i would be really good." I dont know any phrases from songs or athletes.
it takes courage to stand up and speak but it also takes courage to sit down. life is merelyLife is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire." “We did what we could do to win the game. That's all that we can really take care of, whatever happens on the field. The refs do what they do, and we've got to do our part. It's not our job to do the officiating. It's not the fans' job to do the officiating.”- Troy Polamalu!
I chose it takes courage to stand up and speak. But it also takes courage and sit down and listen. Yes, my basketball coach always says play start. I think the song one love by Bob Marley have very good quotes in it. "We need leadership. Last year, we had leadership, but it probably wasn't enough. This year, we're locked in on that.”- Darrelle Revis
Austin Ferguson 7/8
It takes courage to stand up and speak, but it also takes courage to sit down and listen. I think the quote means that if you stand up and be a leader than you are brave but you also have to listen too. My parents always repeat the quote, "Treat others the way you wanted to be treated." A phrase from a song that could be used as a great quote is, "when you get knocked down you have to get back up." A quote that I've heard from an athlete is never give up.
"Those on top of a mountain didn't fall there." It means that you try to reach your goal and you finally conquer it, then don't let it go, keep going with it. My mom always says what goes around comes around.
It takes courage to stand up and speak. But it also takes courage to sit down and listen. All of the quotes talk about something that has to deal with you or someone else that you have to help. Make good choices-my mom says that. The phrase from a song that could be used as a great quote would be." "Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire." “We did what we could do to win the game. That's all that we can really take care of, whatever happens on the field. The refs do what they do, and we've got to do our part. It's not our job to do the officiating. It's not the fans' job to do the officiating.”- Troy Polamalu!
To the fans and everybody in Gator Nation, I’m sorry. I’m extremely sorry. We were hoping for an undefeated season. That was my goal something Florida has never done here.
I promise you one thing, a lot of good will come out of this. You will never see any playing in the entire country play as hard as I will play the rest of the season. You will never see someone push the rest of the team as hard as I will push everybody the rest of this season.
You will never see a team play harder than we will the rest of the season. God Bless.

I like the quote "If you see someone without a smile, give them yours". All of the quotes talk about something that has to deal with you or someone else that you have to help.
