When in doubt, be yourself.

A winner never taught me how to quit.

If something is wrong, fix it now. But train yourself not to worry, worry fixes nothing!

The mutual confidence on which all else depends can be maintained only by an open mind and a brave reliance upon free discussion.

Thinking too well of people often allows them to be better than they otherwise would.

Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life.

The stability of the internal medium is a primary condition for the freedom and independence of certain living bodies in relation to the environment surrounding them.

I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

No one can draw more out of things, books included, than he already knows. A man has no ears for that to which experience has given him no access.

If you can allow yourself to trust those little movements round your gut that tell you when something is interesting or exciting, they will tell you where to go.

My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness.

The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot.

Conquer yourself rather than the world.
