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

Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

I just couldn't take school seriously: I had this guitar neck with four frets which I kept hidden under the desk. It had strings on it so I would practice my chord shapes under the desk and that's about all I did at school.

Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

You'll never get ahead of anyone as long as you try to get even with him.

Whatever lifts the corners of your mouth, trust that.

March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path.

Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.

Every intention is a trigger for transformation.

I am the captain of my soul.

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Do not count your chickens before they are hatched.

We have been called to heal wounds, to unite what has fallen apart, and to bring home those who have lost their way.

How long should you try? Until.

Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.

You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Yelling at living things does tend to kill the spirit in them. Sticks and stones may break our bones, but words will break our hearts...

All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.

My dear friend, clear your mind of cant.
