Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.

Plan your work - work your plan. Lack of system produces that 'I'm swamped' feeling.

Without ambition one starts nothing. Without work one finishes nothing. The prize will not be sent to you. You have to win it.

Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.

If you can accept losing, you can't win.

It's always too early to quit.

All wealth is the product of labor.

If you put off everything till you're sure of it, you'll never get anything done.

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.

Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.

Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.

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

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.

Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

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

I believe that every person is born with talent.

Whether you think you can, or you think you can't - you're right.

Always do what you are afraid to do.

When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them.

When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love ...

Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.
