Do not seek praise. Seek criticism.

Even a bad idea executed is better than a good idea undone.

Risks are a measure of people. People who won't take them are trying to preserve what they have. People who do take them often end up having more. Some risks have a future, and some people call them wrong. But being right may be like walking backwards proving where you've been. Being wrong isn't in the future, or in the past. Being wrong isn't anywhere but being here. Best place to be, eh?

We are all advertising, all of the time. If you want to sell your car, what do you do? You clean and polish it and make it the best you can. Some people bake bread when they are trying to sell their house because the smell adds a friendly feeling. Even the priest, with all his or her fervour, is advertising God. Everybody is selling.

It's better to regret what you have done than what you haven't.

When it can't be done, do it. If you don't do it, it doesn't exist.

If you always make the right decision, the safe decision, the one most people make, you will be the same as everyone else.
