Bruce LeeI feel matured in a way that I’m happy about. I’m at this other stage in my life – and it’s not a bad thing at all.
Angelina JolieMy purpose is to help people look at themselves and begin to shift their concepts. Remember, we are not our country, our race, or religion. We are eternal spirits. Seeing ourselves as spiritual beings without label is a way to transform the world and reach a sacred place for all of humanity.
Wayne DyerMy father probably thought the capital of the world was wherever he was at the time. It couldn’t possibly be anyplace else. Where he and his wife were in their own home, that, for them, was the capital of the world.
Bob DylanAny fool can criticize, condemn and complain – and most fools do.
Dale CarnegieI had a really good childhood up until I was nine, then a classic case of divorce really affected me.

Robert GreeneKeeping score is for games, not friendships.
John C. MaxwellI had my moments of being humiliated, and then I had moments of doing something humiliating. I’m glad I lived out both roles.
Adam SandlerMy music seems to have a bigger mission than I have, which is very soothing but also very strange because people see more in me than I see, which can be terrifying.
AuroraI grew up where, when a door closed, a window didn’t open. The only thing I had was cracks. I’d do everything to get through those cracks – scratch, claw, bite, push, bleed. Now the opportunity is here. The door is wide open, and it’s as big as a garage.
Dwayne JohnsonI try to not focus on what people expect from me.
Lady GagaMy philosophy is: It’s none of my business what people say of me and think of me.

William JamesPeople should pursue what they’re passionate about. That will make them happier than pretty much anything else.
Elon MuskIt definitely has learning a lesson about the way you’re living your life. I wouldn’t compare our movie to that, but it has a structure where it’s about a man who doesn’t appreciate all that he has and finds out at the end that life has been great and he has to enjoy that.
Adam SandlerI think the best thing I ever did with my life was stand up and say I’ve got Alzheimer’s.

Lao TzuI enjoy competition. I enjoy challenges. If a challenge is in front of me and it appeals to me, I will go ahead and conquer it.
Conor McGregorI spent most of the early years of my walk with God focused on what was wrong with me. Most of us probably do that, hoping to change ourselves.
Joyce MeyerWe shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.
Winston ChurchillThose who want the Government to regulate matters of the mind and spirit are like men who are so afraid of being murdered that they commit suicide to avoid assassination.
Harry S. TrumanWishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.
AristotleI pass my life in preventing the storm from blowing down the tent, and I drive in the pegs as fast as they are pulled up.
Abraham LincolnOh, I’ve always been very… Emotional. ‚Hypersensitive‘ is what they call it, I think.
AuroraI allow myself to fail. I allow myself to break. I’m not afraid of my flaws.

Jordan PetersonI’m on record that it didn’t really traumatize me to do away with some people.
Jim MattisI believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.
Martin Luther King, Jr.I’m the kind of person who needs to feel like everything happens for a reason. When you date a guy and it goes badly, that’s horrible. But if you can write a song about it, then it was worth it.
Taylor SwiftMy entire childhood was steeped in poverty. For me, poverty, in a way, was the first inspiration of my life, a commitment to do something for the poor.
Narendra ModiDave Mackay is my definition of a superstar. The man broke his leg three times, but wouldn’t be carried off. He walked off.

Bruno MarsI want to work; then, as my kids get older, I want to have adventures. I want to visit all their countries: learn and live inside all their cultures.
