Life is a unique combination of "want to" and "how to" and we need to give equal attention to both.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

If someone gives you $1,000,000 you'd better become a millionaire so you can keep the money. Success doesn't want to hang around incompetent people.

The great gift of the human imagination is that it has no limits or ending.

Your life, my life, the life of each one of us is going to serve as either a warning or an example. A warning of the consequences of neglect, self-pity, lack of direction and ambition... or an example of talent put to use, of discipline self-imposed, and of objectives clearly perceived and intensely pursued.

What you don't know will hurt you.

Don't ask for security, ask for adventure. Better to live 30 years full of adventure than a 100 years safe in the corner.
