Most people live and die with their music still unplayed. They never dare to try.

When every physical and mental resource is focused, one's power to solve a problem multiplies tremendously.

Never tell all you know-not even to the person you know best.

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

A sudden dart when a little over a hundred feet from the end of the track, or a little over 120 feet from the point at which it rose into the air, ended the flight.

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

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

Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase.

You shape your own destiny.

Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.

Treat a work of art like a prince. Let it speak to you first.

I trust that everything happens for a reason, even if we are not wise enough to see it.

Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Failure is not our only punishment for laziness; there is also the success of others.

You got to get it while you can.

Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.

No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess.

I just couldn't take school seriously: I had this guitar neck with four frets which I kept hidden under the desk. It had strings on it so I would practice my chord shapes under the desk and that's about all I did at school.

If you put off everything till you're sure of it, you'll never get anything done.

I believe that every person is born with talent.

Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
