Humility is really important because it keeps you fresh and new.

Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.

No one has ever become poor by giving.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Behind every beautiful thing, there's some kind of pain.

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.

Old age is by nature rather talkative.

I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.

History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.

The natural world is the greatest source of excitement. The greatest source of visual beauty. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.

I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying.

Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be...

Enjoy when you can, and endure when you must.

Last year I sang for the Queen of England, met the president of the United States, and got an Emmy and a star on The Walk of Fame. And what did I do? I was just being myself.

Life does not need to mutilate itself in order to be pure.

Some people are desperately looking for scapegoats, they just don't want to see the truth!

We all learn lessons in life. Some stick, some don't. I have always learned more from rejection and failure than from acceptance and success.

Life is like music, it must be composed by ear, feeling and instinct, not by rule.

Those who are easily shocked should be shocked more often.
