Vision without action is daydreaming; acting without vision is a nightmare.
                                                                                             ~Chinese Proverb
Having a vision is nothing without action. This means that you are procrastinating. Acting without having a vision is like running around like a chicken with its head cut off. This means that you must plan before you do, otherwise, you are wasting your time.

In matters of style, Swim with current, In matters of principle, stand like a rock.
                                                                                              ~Thomas Jefferson

If you want to be socially accepted ,keep up with the latest styles. If you want to be morally accepted and respected, be your own person. When it comes to making decisions regarding your beliefs and principles, don't look at what everyone else is doing but rather do what’s in your heart. Your principles are what make you unique and special. Swimming with the current when it comes to principles is the easy way out, it means you’ve compromised your principles in order to be socially accepted.

The difference between a successful person and others is not lack of strength, not lack of knowledge, but rather lack of will.
                                                                                                                                          ~Vince Lombardi
I think this quote is saying, just because a person is strong doesn't mean they won't be successful. Just because a person has knowledge doesn't mean they will be successful. It is the will of a person that can bring them to shine above all other aspects.

ALL I know is I tried my best.
                            ~Tiger Woods

If you try, you are most likely to succeed. He tried, so he succeeded most of the time. He tried his best to be the best, and now he is the best.

"What is granted is often taken for granted."
                                             ~Father Gerry Hurley
This quote is saying, you give someone an inch, and they take a mile. People try to take advantage of what you do for them. They don't know how far to go with you, so they test you to find out your limits.

"The surest way NOT to fail is to determine to succeed."
                                                                       ~Richard Sheridan

I think this quote is saying that a person cannot achieve success without striving for success. If a person wants something, they should work for it. No pain, no game is the best  saying to sum this quote up.

" What you DO speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say"
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
I think this quote is saying that actions speak louder than words. If a person has the most extensive vocabulary, but no good body language then they will not go anywhere compared to people with a normal vocabulary and excellent body language.

"What makes  good father isn't what you leave for your son, but what you leave within your son."
                                                                                                                                    ~Michael Irving
I think this quote is saying look past the materialistic things and give him things that only his heart may understand. Money is not everything, but love and affection just might be. If a father shows his son love and affection, then he will know how you feel about him.
