What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Who seeks shall find.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

It's very difficult to talk about religion in Iran because religion has gotten so mixed up with politics.
