Motivational Quotes
Excellence
I always remember an epitaph which is in the cemetery at Tombstone, Arizona. It says: Here lies Jack Williams. He done his damnedest. I think that is the greatest epitaph a man can have.

Best Quotes about Excellence
Do not look for approval except for the consciousness of doing your best.
Carnegie, Andrew
Always strive to excel, but only on weekends.
Rorty, Richard
Great men are but common men more fully developed and ripened.
Marden, Orison Swett
One of the most essential things you need to do for yourself is to choose a goal that is important to you. Perfection does not exist -- you can always do better and you can always grow.
Brown, Les
Do more than you're supposed to do and you can have or be or do anything you want.
Sands, Bill
Whoever I am, or whatever I am doing, some kind of excellence is within my reach.
Gardner, John W.
Resolve to make each day the very best and don't let anyone get in your way. If they do, step on them.
Benson, Ivan
There is only one thing for us to do, and that is to do our level best right where we are every day of our lives; To use our best judgment, and then to trust the rest to that Power which holds the forces of the universe in his hands.
Marden, Orison Swett
If something is exceptionally well done it has embedded in it's very existence the aim of lifting the common denominator rather than catering to it.
Fischer, Edward
The uncommon man is merely the common man thinking and dreaming of success in larger terms and in more fruitful areas.
Powers, Melvin
Badness you can get easily, in quantity; the road is smooth, and it lies close by, But in front of excellence the immortal gods have put sweat, and long and steer is the way to it.
Hesiod
The idea for which this nation stands will not survive if the highest goal free man can set themselves is an amiable mediocrity. Excellence implies striving for the highest standards in every phase of life.
Gardner, John W.
It is those who have this imperative demand for the best in their natures, and who will accept nothing short of it, that holds the banners of progress, that set the standards, the ideals, for others.
Marden, Orison Swett
Doing common things uncommonly well.
Marden, Orison Swett
From time to time there appear on the face of the earth men of rare and consummate excellence, who dazzle us by their virtue, and whose outstanding qualities shed a stupendous light. Like those extraordinary stars of whose origins we are ignorant, and of whose fate, once they have vanished, we know even less, such men have neither forebears nor descendants: they are the whole of their race.
Bruyere, Jean De La
If we want to make something really superb on this planet, there is nothing whatever that can stop us.
Mead, Shepherd
There is none who cannot teach somebody something, and there is none so excellent but he is excelled.
Gracian, Baltasar
Then to Silvia let us sing that Silvia is excelling. She excels each mortal thing upon the dull earth dwelling.
Shakespeare, William
It is the mark of an instructed mind to rest satisfied with the degree of precision which the nature of the subject admits and not to seek exactness when only an approximation of the truth is possible.
Aristotle
Our goal, simply stated, is to be the best.
Robinson, James H.
All you owe the public is a good performance.
Bogart, Humphrey
The sad truth is that excellence makes people nervous.
Shana Alexander
I start where the last man left off.
Edison, Thomas A.
Determine to become one of the best. Sufficient money will almost automatically follow if you get to be one of the best in your chosen field, whatever it is.
Mitchell, Don G.
We do not do well except when we know where the best is and when we are assured that we have touched it and hold its power within us.
Joubert, Joseph
Excellent firms don't believe in excellence -- only in constant improvement and constant change.
Peters, Thomas J.
If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives.
Lombardi, Vince
It's not enough that we do our best; sometimes we have to do what's required.
Sir Winston Churchill
The principle is competing against yourself. It's about self improvement, about being better than you were the day before.
Young, Steve
The man who comes up with a means for doing or producing almost anything better, faster or more economically has his future and his fortune at his fingertips.
Getty, J. Paul
I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
Mansfield, Katherine
The road to excellence is always under construction
I am a writer because writing is the thing I do best.
O'Connor, Flannery
The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he's always doing both.
Michener, James A.
Excellence means when a man or woman asks of himself more than others do.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y
There is no finish line.
Nike Corporation
Good enough never is.
Field, Debbi
The excellency of every art is its intensity, capable of making all disagreeable evaporate.
Keats, John
Do a little more each day than you think you possibly can.
Thomas, Lowell
Put the uncommon effort into the common task... make it large by doing it in a great way.
Marden, Orison Swett
Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later.
Mandino, Og
You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
Feinstein, Dianne
Always dream and shoot higher than you know you can reach. Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries and predecessors; try to be better than yourself.
To enjoy enduring success we should travel a little in advance of the world.
Mcdonald, John
If you want to achieve excellence, you can get there today. As of this second, quit doing less-than-excellent work.
Watson, Thomas J.
People come out to see you perform and you've got to give them the best you have within you. The lives of most men are patchwork quilts. Or at best one matching outfit with a closet and laundry bag full of incongruous accumulations. A lifetime of training for just ten seconds.
Owens, Jesse
Superiority -- doing things a little better than anybody else can do them.
Marden, Orison Swett
A racehorse that consistently runs just a second faster than another horse is worth millions of dollars more. Be willing to give that extra effort that separates the winner from the one in second place.
Brown Jr., H. Jackson
It is only in your mind that you have to excel, at anything or everything. Of course, it would be very nice to excel at most things. Indeed, we recommend that you try and do your best. But realistically, you are entitled to do the bare minimum to get by. All your accomplishments are just a bonus, something to enjoy, not requirements. You don't have to do anything to prove that you are worthy of existing.
Albert Ellis, Michael Abrams, Lidia Dengelegi
Winners have the ability to step back from the canvas of their lives like an artist gaining perspective. They make their lives a work of art -- an individual masterpiece.
Waitley, Denis
