Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.

It is only when the mind is free from the old that it meets everything anew, and in that there is joy.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

To myself I am only a child playing on the beach, while vast oceans of truth lie undiscovered before me.

We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.

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

Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue.

I am the lizard king. I can do anything.

Don't ever take a fence down until you know why it was put up.

Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.

Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

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

People throw stones at you and you convert them into milestones.

Find out who you are and do it on purpose.

Every problem has in it the seeds of its own solution. If you don't have any problems, you don't get any seeds.

Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were, but without it we go nowhere.

I can never stand still. I must explore and experiment. I am never satisfied with my work. I resent the limitations of my own imagination.

If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.

Some people regard discipline as a chore. For me, it is a kind of order that sets me free to fly.

A pure hand needs no glove to cover it.
