I found some quotes from Lord Baden Powell. Some of them are so inspirational and are all the basis of Scouting...
"Look wide, and when you have looked wide, look wider still"
“O God, help me to win, but in thy wisdom if thou willest me not to win, then O God, make me a good loser.”
“We never fail when we try to do our duty, we always fail when we neglect to do it.”
"There's nothing like 'Being Prepared' is there, for what might seem possible, even if it may not seem probable."
"In all of this, it is the spirit that matters. Our Scout law and Promise, when we really put them into practice, take away all occasion for wars and strife among nations"
and finally, When Baden Powell died, he left us all with one last message and it was this...
"Try to leave this world a little better than you found it and, when your turn comes to die, you can die happy in feeling that at any rate you have not wasted your time but have done your best"
...Kinda puts some weight on our shoulders aye?
