You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

Every intention is a trigger for transformation.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and to impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

Give yourself something to work toward - constantly.

Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the strength, move on.

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

One must maintain a little bittle of summer, even in the middle of winter.

Crave for a thing, you will get it. Renounce the craving, the object will follow you by itself.

Listen to many, speak to a few.

You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.

Never stand begging for what one has the power to earn.

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.

A long apprenticeship is the most logical way to success. The only alternative is overnight stardom, but I can't give you a formula for that.

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

Go on with what your heart tells you, or you will lose all.

Whatever you are, be a good one.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

I'm sorry I wrote you such a long letter; I didn't have time to write a short one.

It always seems impossible until it's done.

Don't complain about the snow on your neighbor's roof when your own doorstep is unclean.

However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?
