Quotes for the Common-Place Book

Sallie of Two Talent Living has put together a collection of terrific quotes suitable for the commonplace book, copywork, and practice in calligraphy. It includes gems like these:
Nothing will ever be attempted, if all possible objections must first be overcome.
Samuel Johnson

Better to love God and die unknown than to love the world and be a hero; better to be content with poverty than to die a slave to wealth; better to have taken some risks and lost than to have done nothing and succeeded at it.
Erwin W. Lutzer

A life making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.
George Bernard Shaw
