He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life

Freedom and independence form my character.

To give pleasure to a single heart by a single act is better than a thousand heads bowing in prayer.

Give yourself something to work toward - constantly.

Every nation has the right to demand proper treatment and no country should violate the territory of any other country.

Climbing to the top demands strength, whether it is to the top of Mount Everest or to the top of your career.

We were a family who had come from nothing and now we had respect from French people of all sorts.

If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original.

Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties.

You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.

Be yourself, let you come through.

Accept whatever comes to you woven in the pattern of your destiny, for what could more aptly fit your needs?

In a day, when you don't come across any problems - you can be sure that you are travelling in a wrong path.

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is brave five minutes longer.

As long as I'm in great shape, nobody beats me, for sure.

What I stand for is what I stand on.

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

If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself.
