Aim Quotes
Aim Quotes to Help You Score That Touchdown

By Simran Khurana, About.com

What sets us apart from other species is that we humans are driven by ambition. Some ambitions are specific, while others are vague. A life without ambition is a waste. An aim quote that influenced me is, "Aim small, miss small." These aim quotes remind us to never stop marching towards our goal.
