I want to make a New Year’s prayer, not a resolution. I’m praying for courage.

To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.

Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.

Attention is a moral act: It creates, brings aspects of things into being.

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

Skill and confidence are an unconquered army.

The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love.

Forgiveness … is a gift of high value. Yet its cost is nothing.

One shouldn't just hope to be treated well: one must insist on it.

The excursion is the same when you go looking for your sorrow as when you go looking for your joy.

When you enter those places of trust, or power, dream a little before you think.

You can't learn style. Style, I think, is in your DNA.
