Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.

It isn't just talent. You have to have something else. You have to have a kind of nerve.

Dismiss whatever insults your own soul.

You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you.

Endure, and keep yourselves for days of happiness.

Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its troubles, but it empties it of its strength.

I do not think it worth while to wait for enjoyment until there is some real opportunity for it.

It is not a daily increase, but a daily decrease. Hack away at the inessentials.

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

Tolerance, like any aspect of peace, is forever a work in progress.

If the risk is fully aligned with your purpose and mission, then it’s worth considering.

Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say.
