However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.

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

My optimism wears heavy boots and is loud.

The men who have succeeded are men who have chosen one line and stuck to it.

Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and astound the other.

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

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?

My mother said to me, 'If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope.' Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.

I may have had a lot of luck in my life, but I still need to find a challenge in the game.

Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue.

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

Argue not concerning God,re-examine all that you have been told at church or school or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your soul

Neither worse then or better is a thing made by being praised.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

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

All thinking men are atheists.

Storms make trees take deeper roots.

Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.

What does not destroy me, makes me strong.

I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.

Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.
