If you fell down yesterday, stand up today.

Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Don't stop chasing your dreams, because dreams do come true.

Dare to be free, dare to go as far as your thought leads, and dare to carry that out in your life.

I am the lizard king. I can do anything.

It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it.

A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

What's the world's greatest lie?... It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate.

The starting point of all achievement is desire.

You can wish for things in the future to be different, but in this moment you have to accept things as they are.

A painter should begin every canvas with a wash of black, because all things in nature are dark except where exposed by the light.

Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.

Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties.

Every problem has in it the seeds of its own solution. If you don't have any problems, you don't get any seeds.

How long should you try? Until.

We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do.

My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit as well as physically.

Be the change that you wish to see in the world.

In life, you need either inspiration or desperation.
