About This Quote
The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there...and still on your feet. Having made your stand, the only thing that matters is whether or not you are still standing after the dust settles. Your successes may be great or small, but they are still yours to own. No matter how big or how small, if you’re still standing, then you’re still there.
