I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.

Do the best you can, and don’t take life too serious.

Isn’t it funny how babies laugh a lot? I read a toddler, a young child laughs 300 times a day. The average adult laughs, like, four times a day. God put it in them. He put the laugh in us, but I think sometimes we let life get us down, you know, have bad breaks, and we lose our breaks.

Your decision to be, have and do something out of ordinary entails facing difficulties that are out of the ordinary as well. Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else.

Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!

The only definition by which America’s best days are behind it is on a purely relative basis.

If we chew every morsel of our food, in that way we become grateful, and when you are grateful, you are happy.

We shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.

I feel like this: Whatever is in your path and in your heart, you need to do.

If you are lucky enough to find something that you love, and you have a shot at being good at it, don’t stop, don’t put it down.

Aim for the highest.

What? You seek something? You wish to multiply yourself tenfold, a hundredfold? You seek followers? Seek zeros!

Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out.

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.

The people respect and believe in men who fulfill their duty.

We’re in the last days, man – I truly, in my heart, believe that. It’s written. I could go on with biblical situations and things my grandma told me. But it’s about being at peace with myself and making good with the people around me.

Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to cut all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win – essential to success.

The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man’s heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

The more successful I become, the more I need a man.

I think my vice would be outdoing myself.

One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn’t do.

My pride fell with my fortunes.

I don’t argue when people say that my message is simple, but I believe Jesus‘ message was simple.

Listen; there’s a hell of a good universe next door: let’s go.

If you cannot concentrate, you are not so happy.

I joyfully hasten to meet death. If it come before I have had opportunity to develop all my artistic faculties, it will come, my hard fate notwithstanding, too soon, and I should probably wish it later – yet even then I shall be happy, for will it not deliver me from a state of endless suffering?

Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.

I never thought of losing, but now that it‘ s happened, the only thing is to do it right. That’s my obligation to all the people who believe in me. We all have to take defeats in life.

I look only to the good qualities of men. Not being faultless myself, I won’t presume to probe into the faults of others.

I am not happy, and the quest for happiness as a principal objective is not part of my world. Of course, ever since I can remember, I have done what I felt like doing.

Faith is easy; I think people complicate it.

It’s rule number one, really – beating your teammate.

Quitting doesn’t enter my mind.

Cowards die many times before their actual deaths.

Never say anything about yourself you do not want to come true.

You can tell the strength of a nation by the women behind its men.

Of course it would be nice for everybody and myself if we could win but we can still have a personal or a team win if we achieve a target that is effectively a win for us.

I believe we are still so innocent. The species are still so innocent that a person who is apt to be murdered believes that the murderer, just before he puts the final wrench on his throat, will have enough compassion to give him one sweet cup of water.

Most of us are raised to believe we are ordinary. The anchor of the universe is present in every child. A parent only needs to guide and step aside and let them fulfill their dharma. Help children remember that they can do or be anything.

I don’t spend that much time being introspective, believe it or not. All I know is that I grew up not questioning God because that’s how you are. God was there like the birds and the wind.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it’s at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others.

The exercise of benevolence is joy to loving hearts: the more pain it costs, the more joy it is. Kind actions make us happy, and in such joy we find communion with the great heart of Jesus.

If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

I don’t want flowers or candy or anything like that. I just want somebody to say, ‚Wow, you’ve done a great job.‘

A man makes you feel important – makes you glad you are a woman.

I didn’t want to submit to the army and then, on the day of judgment, have God say to me, ‚Why did you do that?‘ This life is a trial, and you realize that what you do is going to be written down for Judgment Day.

Vanity is the healthiest thing in life.

People don’t care about what someone says about you in a movie – or even what you say, right? They care about what you build. And if you can make something that makes people’s life better, then that’s something that’s really good.

Anything that encourages people to pick up an instrument and play, I’m fully behind.

I really believe in the philosophy that you create your own universe. I’m just trying to create a good one for myself.

Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough.

I 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.

I don’t think I’m an unlucky person.

You know, I look like a woman but I think like a man. And in this world of business, that has helped me a lot. Because by the time they think that I don’t know what’s goin‘ on, I then got the money, and gone.

We must have government that builds stamina into communities and men. That makes men instead of mendicants.

Thank God, I never was cheerful. I come from the happy stock of the Mathers, who, as you remember, passed sweet mornings reflecting on the goodness of God and the damnation of infants.

You can be passionate about anything.

I don’t fight in chase of an individual. I hear this sometimes where fighters work their whole careers to reach a matchup with a certain individual. I do not think in that way.

If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

It was morning; through the high window I saw the pure, bright blue of the sky as it hovered cheerfully over the long roofs of the neighboring houses. It too seemed full of joy, as if it had special plans, and had put on its finest clothes for the occasion.

People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.
