Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.

No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and he’s not the same man.

All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy, and great things in that which is small.

God wants to use you to make other people happy! And the happier you make others, the happier you will be because you reap what you sow.

I’ve done many ads because that’s my new career. It’s an inspiring extension for my mind.

I’m really bad with answering questions. Usually, I don’t even answer them. I try to find inspiration inside of the question. I think, and I jump from one beam of inspiration or energy to the next, as opposed to explaining the energy.

The doer alone learneth.

I’m half living my life between reality and fantasy at all times.

If you don’t drive your business, you will be driven out of business.

You just can’t beat the person who never gives up.

If you are a leader, you should never forget that everyone needs encouragement. And everyone who receives it – young or old, successful or less-than-successful, unknown or famous – is changed by it.

Bravery never goes out of fashion.

Dignify and glorify common labor. It is at the bottom of life that we must begin, not at the top.

The secret is not to give up hope. It’s very hard not to because if you’re really doing something worthwhile I think you will be pushed to the brink of hopelessness before you come through the other side.

I came, I saw, I conquered.

There is no man living that can not do more than he thinks he can.

It is as natural to die as to be born; and to a little infant, perhaps, the one is as painful as the other.

May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law.

When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream.

Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen.

Everybody wants to be somebody; nobody wants to grow.

A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

The healthiest competition occurs when average people win by putting above average effort.

Pessimism never won any battle.

It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.

My life is real.

Leaders must invoke an alchemy of great vision.

Everyone, no doubt, remains first and foremost a man of his own country and continues to draw from it his motive force.

I read everything, but generally more fact than fiction – especially autobiographies and biographies. I’ve read ‚Long Walk to Freedom‘ by Nelson Mandela at least twice on holiday. Every time, I’m totally awed by his vision, strength and forgiveness. I feel honoured to have got to know him and his wonderful wife Graca over the years.

Duty, Honor, Country. Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be.

Live the life you’ve dreamed.

The more I think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more artistic than to love others.

I try to sprinkle a little gems and jewels in the music that people could use in their own life.

If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

To make an embarrassing admission, I like video games. That’s what got me into software engineering when I was a kid. I wanted to make money so I could buy a better computer to play better video games – nothing like saving the world.

There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there’s only scarcity of resolve to make it happen.

The right man is the one who seizes the moment.

Courage is knowing what not to fear.

I like money, but it’s never been about the money.

The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.

If you can’t make it good, at least make it look good.

If you dream the proper dreams, and share the myths with people, they will want to grow up to be like you.

It’s better to be a lion for a day than a sheep all your life.

What sweetness is left in life, if you take away friendship? Robbing life of friendship is like robbing the world of the sun. A true friend is more to be esteemed than kinsfolk.

I think a role model is a mentor – someone you see on a daily basis, and you learn from them.

If we keep doing what we’re doing, we’re going to keep getting what we’re getting.

Do not go gentle into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I know I want to always do the best I can.

There is only one sort of discipline, perfect discipline.

Do right. Do your best. Treat others as you want to be treated.

And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.

The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

God hangs the greatest weights upon the smallest wires.

Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company.

It is no use saying, ‚We are doing our best.‘ You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.

Sometimes if you want to see a change for the better, you have to take things into your own hands.

If an idea isn’t exciting, you shouldn’t do it.

I have a message to give to the world, and I shall not be thwarted.

Alas! You complain that your soul is out of tune. Then ask the Master to tune the heart-strings.

I only hope that we don’t lose sight of one thing – that it was all started by a mouse.

Everyone needs a coach. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a basketball player, a tennis player, a gymnast or a bridge player.
