I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it.

I trust that everything happens for a reason, even if we are not wise enough to see it.

A lot of legends, a lot of people, have come before me. But this is my time.

We're lost, but we're making good time

Become a possibilitarian. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities -- always see them, for they're always there.

We must have perserverence and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something.

Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.

To go too far is as bad as to fall short.

There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.

I'm not telling you it's going to be easy - I'm telling you it's going to be worth it.

Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.

Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.

Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, smarter than you think and twice as beautiful as you’ve ever imagined.

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.

If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.

Be yourself, let you come through.

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

A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.

Argue not concerning God,re-examine all that you have been told at church or school or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your soul

People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity, no matter how impressive their other talents.

Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.
