Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.

Make the most of yourself....for that is all there is of you.

Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.

Surround yourself only with people who are going to take you higher.

People should pursue what they're passionate about. That will make them happier than pretty much anything else.

To see me does not necessarily mean to see my face. To understand my thoughts is to have seen me.

Life is entrusted to man as a treasure which must not be squandered, as a talent which must be used well.

There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly.

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win.

You have to work hard to get to the top of your game. I think every writer has doubts! I still do all the time.

I don't know who my grandfather was; I'm much more concerned to know what his grandson will be.

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

Strength of mind rests in sobriety; for this keeps your reason unclouded by passion.

No one is free who has not obtained the empire of himself. No man is free who cannot command himself.

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

It's always too early to quit.

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.

Years from now, after I'm gone, someone will listen to what I've done and know I was here. They may not know or care who I was, but they'll hear my guitars speaking for me.

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