The man with no imagination has no wings.

Great work requires great and persistent effort for a long time. … Character has to be established through a thousand stumbles.

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

Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.

Freedom and independence form my character.

We are all motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is, the more he is inspired by glory.

If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.

To see me does not necessarily mean to see my face. To understand my thoughts is to have seen me.

Memories of our lives, of our works and our deeds will continue in others.

The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today.

Waiting hurts. Forgetting hurts. But not knowing which decision to take is the worst of suffering

We must have perserverence and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something.

Status quo, you know, is Latin for 'the mess we're in'.

A lot of legends, a lot of people, have come before me. But this is my time.

You're never as good as everyone tells you when you win, and you're never as bad as they say when you lose.

Make the most of yourself....for that is all there is of you.

People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.

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

Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.

You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do.
