Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans. Aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will not die.
– Daniel H. Burnham

I can’t remember if I’ve ever posted this quote… but I like reading it, so I’m posting it again.

What every man needs, regardless of his job of the kind of work he is doing, is a vision of what his place is and may be. He needs an objective and a purpose. He need a feeling and a belief that he has some worthwhile thing to do. What this is no one can tell him. It must be his own creations. Its success will be measured by the nature of his vision, what he has done to equip himself, and how well he has performed along the lines of its development. – Joseph M. Dodge
