You have to dream before your dreams can come true.

Never stand begging for what one has the power to earn.

When all is said and done, more is said than done.

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Accept whatever comes to you woven in the pattern of your destiny, for what could more aptly fit your needs?

Do not count your chickens before they are hatched.

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

The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.

It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.

Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.

In winter, I plot and plan. In spring, I move.

To attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd.

Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.

Whatever you are, be a good one.

There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.

Everything I've ever done was out of fear of being mediocre.

I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one.

To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.

I'm sorry I wrote you such a long letter; I didn't have time to write a short one.

I believe that if you show people the problems and you show them the solutions they will be moved to act.
