Excellence





"Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit." (Aristotle)

"The secret of joy is contained in one word--excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it." (Pearl Buck)

"Strive for perfection; settle for excellence." (Don Shula)

"Excellence means when a man or woman asks of himself more than others do." (Jose Ortega Y Gasset)
