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

Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.

The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.

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

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

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

The people who were trying to make this world worse are not taking the day off. Why should I?

If you want a thing done well, do it yourself.

A sudden dart when a little over a hundred feet from the end of the track, or a little over 120 feet from the point at which it rose into the air, ended the flight.

The best way out is always through.

Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.

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

We are citizens of the world. The tragedy of our times is that we do not know this.

Ideas come from everything

He that can have patience can have what he will.
