I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.

I think that, as life is action and passion, it is required of a man that he should share the passion and action of his time at peril of being judged not to have lived.

I have to face life with a newly found passion. I must rediscover the irresistible will to learn, to live and to love.

The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled.

An irresistible passion that would induce me to believe in innate ideas and the truth of prophecy has decided my career. I have always loved liberty with the enthusiasm which actuates the religious man with the passion of a lover and with the conviction of a geometrician.

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.

Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion.

To play a wrong note is insignificant. To play without passion is inexcusable.
