Awaken The Giant Within Quotes Liked To Sources

All the quotations by non-English personalities, found in this book “Awaken The Giant Within” by Anthony Robbins, are accompanied with quotes in their original languages.

Notable people from Socrates, Heraclitus, Voltaire to Victor Hugo, Confucius and Jose Ortega Y Gasset.
