What is a quote that inspires you, and why?

"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream"
I like this quote because I often hear from my elders that they were too afraid of changing their careers or going back to school because they felt "too old". Or I have heard from people that they are afraid to change their major in college because it would add on years to their educational career and they didn't want to graduate later than their peers. But age or an educational extension shouldn't prevent you from doing what you want to do. If you're unhappy with your major, change it. If you don't like your career, it is never too late to go back to school. This quote was definitely inspiring and has helped me when I wanted to change my major because I am one of those people who was afraid of extending their educational career.
