Muhammad Ali is a legend, a hero of mine.
Conor McGregorWith the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.

Wayne DyerAll our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Walt DisneyI remember being in Japan when Destiny’s Child put out ‚Independent Women,‘ and women there were saying how proud they were to have their own jobs, their own independent thinking, their own goals. It made me feel so good, and I realized that one of my responsibilities was to inspire women in a deeper way.
Beyonce KnowlesSometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith.
Steve JobsBill Gates has always been a mentor and inspiration for me even before I knew him. Just growing up, I admired how Microsoft was mission-focused.

Ralph Waldo EmersonLife must be lived and curiosity kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.
Eleanor RooseveltHe ate and drank the precious Words, his Spirit grew robust; He knew no more that he was poor, nor that his frame was Dust.
Emily DickinsonThe writing process, the way I go about it is I do whatever the beat feels like, whatever the beat is telling me to do. Usually when the beat comes on, I think of a hook or the subject I want to rap about almost instantly. Within four, eight bars of it playing I’m just like, ‚Oh, OK. This is what I wanna do‘.
EminemI write for no other purpose than to add to the beauty that now belongs to me. I write a book for no other reason than to add three or four hundred acres to my magnificent estate.

Oscar WildeAs a kid, I used to see how Sachin Tendulkar used to win matches under pressure for India in Sharjah or other places. So I was always keen to repeat the same in similar situations.

Virat KohliSome are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
William ShakespeareHong Kong is a wonderful, mixed-up town where you’ve got great food and adventure. First and foremost, it’s a great place to experience China in a relatively accessible way.
Anthony BourdainAs a musician and a songwriter, it is an act of the ego to believe that other people might be interested in your point of view. But it is usually an empathetic nature that gets you going in the first place. Music keeps the heart porous in many ways.
BonoPassion rebuilds the world for the youth. It makes all things alive and significant.
Ralph Waldo EmersonPeople have to go through trials and tribulations to get where they at. Do your thing – continue to rock it – because obviously, God wants you here.

Charles BukowskiI’ve never been able to witness the birth of an idea. It seems as if one second, there’s nothing particularly going on, and the next second, something is there. It’s coming up out of my unconscious, up from places that I don’t even know where they are.
Paul AusterI began revolution with 82 men. If I had to do it again, I do it with 10 or 15 and absolute faith. It does not matter how small you are if you have faith and plan of action.
Fidel CastroA word of encouragement from a teacher to a child can change a life. A word of encouragement from a spouse can save a marriage. A word of encouragement from a leader can inspire a person to reach her potential.
John C. MaxwellI shall never be ashamed of citing a bad author if the line is good.

Lucius Annaeus SenecaIf you write in the same way over and over again, like, in the same place with the same techniques and with the same people, you’re sort of writing the same song over and over again.
Billie EilishI do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success… such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.
Nikola TeslaFor me, writing a novel is like having a dream. Writing a novel lets me intentionally dream while I’m still awake. I can continue yesterday’s dream today, something you can’t normally do in everyday life.
Haruki MurakamiSometimes I’ll jot a clever turn of phrase down. Sometimes I’ll just remember it.
John KennedyThere’s so much about Dolly Parton that every female artist should look to, whether it’s reading her quotes or reading her interviews or going to one of her live shows. She’s been such an amazing example to every female songwriter out there.

Jean-Jacques RousseauI dwell in possibility.
Emily Dickinson
