. . . the circumference of life cannot be rightly drawn until the center is set.

I believe everyone is born into the world to do something unique and distinctive.

It must be borne in mind that the tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach.

It isn't a calamity to die with dreams unfulfilled, but it is a calamity not to dream.

Failure isn't in not reaching your goal but in having no goal to reach.

It is not a disaster to be unable to capture your ideal, but it is a disaster to have no ideal to capture.

[H]owever hard the road, however difficult today, tomorrow things will be better. Tomorrow may not be better, but we must believe that it will be.
