“In life, you take strides forward, but you always take a few steps back. But in the end, if you take more steps forward than backward, you're making progress.”

“Sometimes you have to take a step back to move forward”

“It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward.”

“Don't step backward toward nothing, step forward toward something, better awkward steps forward, than coward steps backward.”

“If you’re tired of taking one step forward and two steps back, just turn around. That way you’ll be going forward in reverse.
”

“So don't stop moving forward. For a while, you may feel as though you're taking two steps forward, one step back. And there may be some personal heartache along the way. But when you look your little ones in the eye, you will find your voice and take a stand for them. We are their voices. And we must have the courage to stand up for them, whatever the odds or however powerful the opposition might be.”
