Peace requires us to surrender our illusions of control.

Our real blessings often appear to us in the shape of pains, losses, and disappointments.

I restore myself when I'm alone. A career is born in public — talent in privacy.

Many are the wonders of the world, and none so wonderful as man.

To have courage for whatever comes in life — everything lies in that.

Champions keep playing until they get it right.

I will either find a way, or make one.

Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.

I never practice, I always play.

A hunch is creativity trying to tell you something.

You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.

The present is the only time in which any duty can be done or any grace received.
