Real obstacles don't take you in circles. They can be overcome. Invented ones are like a maze.

Becoming mature means learning to accept what you cannot change, facing unresolved sorrows and learning to love life as it really happens, not as you would have it happen.

And our dreams are who we are.

Sometimes life isn't about who you were or are, but it's about who you are becoming.

When you play it too safe, you're taking the biggest risk of your life. Time is the only wealth we're given.

Every time you worry that you could get trapped in some kind of work you don't care about, you're dealing with the problem of meaningfulness. I guarantee that in the back of your mind is the thought that somehow you have to make a contribution to something, be acknowledged, do something that matters-or you're just fooling around.

Isolation is a dream killer.
