Let the views of others educate and inform you, but let your decisions be a product of your own conclusions.

Poor people have big TV's. Rich people have big libraries.

Don't be anybody's follower, be a student.

Don't leave a 'good time' to chance. Experiences have to be woven with care and planning, like a tapestry.

The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.
