The gifts we are given in life require the best of us, not merely our best intentions.

Provide more service than what you get paid for

Live out of your imagination instead of out of your memory.

Do something about your life now.

Live your life with passion, with some drive, decide that you are going to push yourself. The last chapter to your life has not been written yet, and it doesn't matter about what happened yesterday. It doesn't matter about what happened to you, what matters is, 'what are you going to do about it?'

You have the courage and power to live your dreams.

When a show fails to destroy the competition-and it can fail while attracting 20 million viewers-it is itself destroyed.
