The spirit is larger than the body. The body is pathetic compared to what we have inside us

When you achieve your Dreams It's not so much what you get, It's who you become.

I am overwhelmed by the strength of my body and the power of my mind. For one moment, just one second, I feel immortal.

If you can just immerse yourself in your life, it doesn't matter what you do everyday. Just do it intensely. Be in it, so that when you go to sleep you're exhausted every night and you say, 'Whoa, I just couldn't have done any more with that day.'

This journey has always been about reaching your own other shore no matter what it is, and that dream continues.

You're never too old to chase your dream.

When I walk up on that shore in Florida, I want millions of those AARP sisters and brothers to look at me and say, 'I'm going to go write that novel I thought it was too late to do. I'm going to go work in Africa on that farm that those people need help at. I'm going to adopt a child. It's not too late, I can still live my dreams.'
