I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

I learned that you have to push away the demand of people's expectations by believing in your instincts.

Above all, don't fear difficult moments. The best comes from them.

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

Success isn’t about how your life looks to others; it’s about how it feels to you.

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

There will always be someone who can't see your worth. Don't let it be you.

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

Every noble work is at first impossible.

Change — real change — comes from the inside out.

In quietness the soul expands.

When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in.
