When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionably.

No one is free who has not obtained the empire of himself. No man is free who cannot command himself.

Go on with what your heart tells you, or you will lose all.

We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once.

Plan your work - work your plan. Lack of system produces that 'I'm swamped' feeling.

I'd rather be an optimist and a fool than a pessimist and right.

Don't fear failure. Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.

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

It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

Only when I fall do I get up again.

When obstacles arise, you change your direction to reach your goal; you do not change your decision to get there.

If you want creative workers, give them enough time to play.

There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

You can't live a perfect day until you do something for someone who will never be able to repay you.

The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.

When written in Chinese, the word 'crisis' is composed of two characters. One represents danger, the other opportunity.

I just want to be able to play and make people feel good with what I do. When you're thinking that way, anything can happen. And, usually, what happens is good.

When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them.

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win.

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