7 Terry Fox quotes to give you second wind to win the race of life.

I guess that one of the most important things I’ve learned is that nothing is ever completely bad. Even cancer. It has made me a better person. It has given me courage and a sense of purpose I never had before. But you don’t have to do like I did…wait until you lose a leg or get some awful disease, before you take the time to find out what kind of stuff you’re really made of. You can start now. Anybody can.-
2. I just wish people would realize that anything’s possible if you try; dreams are made possible if you try.

3. Dreams are made possible if you try.

4. I want to set an example that will never be forgotten.

5. I do what I do for the people who believe in me, not for the jerks who don’t.

6. I don’t feel that this is unfair. That’s the thing about cancer. I’m not the only one, it happens all the time to people. I’m not special. This just intensifies what I did. It gives it more meaning. It’ll inspire more people. I just wish people would realize that anything’s possible if you try; dreams are made possible if you try

7. I’m not a dreamer, and I’m not saying this will initiate any kind of definitive answer or cure to cancer, but I believe in miracles. I have to.
