I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be holding hands with little white boys and girls.

With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world.

Life is 10 percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.

Find out who you are. And do it on purpose.

Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th.

One man with courage is a majority.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have.

We are citizens of the world. The tragedy of our times is that we do not know this.

You'll never get ahead of anyone as long as you try to get even with him.

Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love.

However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.

Isn't it astonishing that all these secrets have been preserved for so many years just so we could discover them!

Do not worry about holding high position; worry rather about playing your proper role.

Always do what you are afraid to do.

Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

When I was in college, I wanted to be involved in things that would change the world.

There are no traffic jams on the extra mile.

Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.
