“Keep moving, for it may well be that the greatest song has not yet been sung, the greatest book has not been written, the highest mountain has not been climbed. This is your challenge!

If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl; but by all means keep moving.”
— Martin Luther King Jr.
