No, not really, but these words from his acceptance speech could be written just for us, and I, for one, find them inspiring.
"Hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting."

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
