Motivating T-Shirt

The girl in front of me in spin class today was wearing a T-shirt with the classic Marines quote/slogan "Pain is Weakness Leaving the Body" on the back.  Love it!  And staring at those words helped get me through the last 20 minutes of cycling to complete over 2 hours (over 2:15, in fact) of a tough workout.
