You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.

Wearing a scrap of colored cloth around your neck, even though it serves no useful purpose, but which answers to the name of "tie."

The boy didn't know what a Personal Legend was. 'It's what you have always wanted to accomplish. Everyone, when they are young, knows what their Personal Legend is. At that point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible. They are not afraid to dream, and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realize their Personal Legend.

History will only change when we are able to use the energy of love, just as we use the energy of the wind, the seas, the atom.

Sometimes, we are so attached to our way of life that we turn down wonderful opportunities simply because don't know what to do with it.

The closer you get to your dream, the more your personal legend becomes your real reason for living.

A Warrior knows when a battle is worth fighting.
