As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world . . . as in being able to remake ourselves.

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.

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.

Work harder on yourself than you do on your job.

Without forgiveness, there's no future.

We don't laugh because we're happy -

We're happy because we laugh.

If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.

An ant on the move does more than a dozing ox.

All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood.

Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

You are never too old to reinvent yourself.

A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.

Life seems to go on without effort when I am filled with music.

True happinessis to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon de future.

Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.

If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.

Man's task is to become conscious of the contents that press upward from the unconscious.

A man always has two reasons for doing anything: a good reason and the real reason.

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

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