Know thyself.
There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.
Keep your face to the sunshine and you will never see the shadow.
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do.

If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself.
When I go, God's going to have to give up his favourite chair.
I can be changed by what happens to me. But I refuse to be reduced by it.
Take things as they are. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick.
Crave for a thing, you will get it. Renounce the craving, the object will follow you by itself.
Every problem is a gift - without problems we would not grow.
