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

I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion'.

All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.

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

A long apprenticeship is the most logical way to success. The only alternative is overnight stardom, but I can't give you a formula for that.

Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

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

Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success.

What I stand for is what I stand on.

Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.

People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.

I don't do fashion, I AM fashion.

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

If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.

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

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