I like that one too! In fact there are several by Eleanor Roosevelt that I really like, that one, the one in my signature and this one:
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." ~ E.R.
Another personal favorite of mine:
"Courage is not the lack of fear.. It's acting in spite of it." ~ Mark Twain
