A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.

Freedom and independence form my character.

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

You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.

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

I'm not telling you it's going to be easy - I'm telling you it's going to be worth it.

My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit as well as physically.

People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily.

Ideas come from everything

You are never too old to become younger!

I do not care so much what I am to others as I care what I am to myself.

Isn't it astonishing that all these secrets have been preserved for so many years just so we could discover them!

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it!

Strength of mind rests in sobriety; for this keeps your reason unclouded by passion.

Why live an ordinary life, when you can live an extraordinary one.

I discover myself on the verge of a usual mistake.

Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life. Both life and death are parts of the same Great Adventure.

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.

Be yourself, let you come through.

You'll never get ahead of anyone as long as you try to get even with him.

I don't do fashion, I AM fashion.
