Inspirational quotes that I always ignored for some reason

Found my assignment notebook from high school! I pulled some quotes out of it that I like:

MOTIVATION: "Ability is what you're capable of doing... motivation determines what you do... attitude determines how well you do it." -- Anonymous

OPTIMISM: "Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world." -- George Bernard Shaw

RESPONSIBILITY: "We can't take any credit for our talents. It's how we use them that counts." -- Madeleine L'Engle

ATTITUDE: "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." -- Maya Angelou

TOLERANCE: "The test of courage comes when we are in the minority; the test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority." -- Ralph W. Sockman

PERSPECTIVE: "When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us." -- Alexander Graham Bell
