The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.

Exuberance is beauty.

You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.

The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases.

It is not enough to know your craft — you have to have feeling.

I have stood on a mountain of no's for one yes.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.

All you have to do is take a close look at yourself and you will understand everyone else.

All mistakes teach us something, so there are, in reality, no mistakes.

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it.
