## Testimonials

- [Homer Simpson](https://tirfrugby.ca/testimonial/testimonial-5/) - D'oh. I'll keep it short and sweet — Family. Religion. Friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business.
- [Helen Keller](https://tirfrugby.ca/testimonial/testimonial-4/) - When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
- [Michael Jordan](https://tirfrugby.ca/testimonial/testimonial-2/) - I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
- [Maya Angelou](https://tirfrugby.ca/testimonial/testimonial-3/) - I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
- [Mark Twain](https://tirfrugby.ca/testimonial/testimonial-7/) - Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover.
