The world belongs to the enthusiast who keeps cool.

There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.

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

Skill and confidence are an unconquered army.

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

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

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

Don't allow your rituals to become ruts.

Change — real change — comes from the inside out.

I will either find a way, or make one.

You must not try to make love definite. It is the divine accident of life.

You mustn't confuse a single failure with a final defeat.
