If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done.

Courage is the thing. All goes if courage goes.

I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.

Freedom and independence form my character.

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

There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled. There is a void in your soul, ready to be filled. You feel it, don’t you?

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

Neither worse then or better is a thing made by being praised.

You have to make the rules, not follow them.

A lot of people have gone further than they thought they could because someone else thought they could

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

You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.

Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.

The present is theirs; the future, for which I really worked, is mine.

It is greed to do all the talking but not to want to listen at all.

In a conflict between the heart and the brain, follow your heart.

Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are

It's kind of fun to do the impossible.

Nobody can hurt me without my permission.

The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.

Surround yourself only with people who are going to take you higher.
