Motivational quotes and speeches are not about becoming an astronaut, brain surgeon, 1st place athlete or making a certain amount of money.

The soldier doesn’t usually act on his own initiative, he doesn’t harbour feelings of hatred or resentment or jealousy, he isn’t motivated by long-held desires or personal ambition; the only motivating force is a vague, rhetorical, empty patriotism, for those soldiers, that is, who are moved by such feelings or allow themselves to be convinced.

“It gives them a bunch of motivation. It makes them feel better at what they're doing so they have extra drive.”

“It's just awe-inspiring country. It was just a place that was so gorgeous that you did everything you could to enjoy it.”

“It's definitely disappointing, ... We had a goal this year of going to the playoffs and advancing. It's got to be motivation for us in the offseason.”

“Obviously, I don't want to see people beat up animals, but animal rights is not my motivation for being involved.”
