It's kind of fun to do the impossible.

A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.

You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.

If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it - then I can achieve it.

Be happy, but never satisfied.

I will never be by violence constrained to do anything.

Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days.

Drink moderately, for drunkenness neither keeps a secret nor observes a promise.

It marks a big step in your development when you come to realize that other people can help you do a better job than you could do alone.

Know thyself.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit as well as physically.

I just want to be able to play and make people feel good with what I do. When you're thinking that way, anything can happen. And, usually, what happens is good.

The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore.

If we go down into ourselves, we find that we possess exactly what we desire.

Anything that makes weak - physically, intellectually and spiritually, reject it as poison.

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

Knowing what's right doesn't mean much unless you do what's right.

When I give, I give myself.

A superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.

I'm sorry I wrote you such a long letter; I didn't have time to write a short one.
