Above all things, respect yourself.

Go then if you must, but remember, no matter how foolish your deeds, those who love you will love you still.

Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.

The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself.

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

You need a little bit of insanity to do great things.

The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today.

Every intention is a trigger for transformation.

It's what you learn after you know it all that counts.

Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life. Both life and death are parts of the same Great Adventure.

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

To See a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour.

Whether you think you can, or you think you can't - you're right.

For every dark night, there's a brighter day

Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.

Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.

He that can have patience can have what he will.
