Do not let it be your aim to be something, but to be someone.

Don?t only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets, for it and knowledge can raise men to the divine.

Without ambition one starts nothing. Without work one finishes nothing. The prize will not be sent to you. You have to win it.

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

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

They deem me mad because I will not sell my days for gold; and I deem them mad because they think my days have a price.

No leader can be too far ahead of his followers.

You need a little bit of insanity to do great things.

He that can have patience can have what he will.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it and join the dance.

If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it's not.

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

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

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

We're lost, but we're making good time

It's always too early to quit.

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

Man who stand on hill with mouth open will wait long time for roast duck to drop in.

If you don't like the road you're walking, start paving another one.

My dear friend, clear your mind of cant.

It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it.
