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

You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.

Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.

Winners and losers aren't born, they are the products of how they think

For a man who no longer has a homeland, writing becomes a place to live.

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

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

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Humans have come into being for the sake of each other, so either teach them, or learn to bear them.

I believe that if you show people the problems and you show them the solutions they will be moved to act.

People should pursue what they're passionate about. That will make them happier than pretty much anything else.

The unexamined life is not worth living.

You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows

You have to dream before your dreams can come true.

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

With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world.

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

If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original.

The man with no imagination has no wings.

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

Nobody can hurt me without my permission.
