Above all things, respect yourself.

They alone live, who live for others.

When we see men of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves.

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

We do not consider our principles as dogmas contained in books said to come from heaven. We derive our inspiration, not from heaven, or the unseen world, but directly from life.

A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.

Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase.

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

When I go, God's going to have to give up his favourite chair.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style

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.

When all is said and done, more is said than done.

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

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.

You got to get it while you can.

We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.

The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.

One man with courage is a majority.

No leader can be too far ahead of his followers.

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
