Og MandinoI've been asked before, "Who are your heroes?" and these types of questions. I always find it hard to identify a single person or a single book or this sort of thing. I've always been forward looking. I was raised with the notion that you can do pretty much anything you want. You're able to accomplish anything you set out to accomplish. I was given a sense of confidence and I never really felt the need to - or I've never had the benefit, I should probably say - of being inspired by outside heroes.

Orison Swett MardenIf he looked into her face, he would see those haunted, loving eyes. The hauntedness would irritate him - the love would move him to fury. How dare she love him? Hadn't she any sense at all? What was he supposed to do about that? Return it? How? What could his calloused hands produce to make her smile?

What could his heavy arms and befuddled brain accomplish that would earn him his own respect, that would in turn allow him to accept her love?

But only the future holds life. To live in the past is to embrace what is dead. To live life to its fullest, each day must be created anew.
Terry GoodkindThere's no way to put a limit on what one may accomplish individually if the intent is an impeccable intent. Don Juan's teachings are not spiritual.

The most important thing for a shaman like don Juan is the idea of pragmatism.
