Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
You never know what motivates you.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Never complain and never explain.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
I can, therefore I am.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
I don't think of myself as a role model. I do try to live in a compassionate, considerate and positive way. The only advice I can offer is to find what you love to do, find the joy in it, and express yourself through your passion.
