Luck? Luck is hard work - and realizing what is opportunity and what isn't.

Now get the hell out of here and go change the world.

There's a great deal of difference between temperament and temper. Temperament is something you welcome creatively, for it is based on sensitivity, empathy, awareness ... but a bad temper takes too much out of you and doesn't really accomplish anything.

If you want something done, ask a busy person to do it. The more things you do, the more you can do.

remember to recognize the small successes that you will have. Don't let the brightness of that big goal blind you to what happens on the way toward the goal. Meet one wave at a time and enjoy what progress you make. I want you please not to be taken up in the undertow of pessimism.

Ability is of little account without opportunity.

I would rather regret the things that I have done than the things that I have not.
