I am prepared for the worst, but hope for the best.

In a gentle way, you can shake the world.

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention. To not be like your parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.

Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

Whoever is happy will make others happy too.

Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.

You change your life by changing your heart.

It is always the simple that produces the marvelous.

God sleeps in the minerals, awakens in plants, walks in animals, and thinks in man.

Don't let the fear of striking out hold you back.
