Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.

I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.
