The greatest sin is to think yourself weak

If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it's not.

We need never be ashamed of our tears.

Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water.

Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

For every man there exists a bait which he cannot resist swallowing.

You shape your own destiny.

I work hard, and I do good, and I'm going to enjoy myself. I'm not going to let you restrict me.

You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

How long should you try? Until.

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.

I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

When I'm good, I'm very good, but when I'm bad, I'm better.

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

Only in the darkness, you are able to see the stars.

Most people live and die with their music still unplayed. They never dare to try.

To myself I am only a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me.

When every physical and mental resource is focused, one's power to solve a problem multiplies tremendously.

A man should look for what is, and not what he thinks should be.
