Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Happiness is not something readymade.  It comes from your own actions.

If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat! Just get on.

First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.

If the wind will not serve, take to the oars.

You can’t use up creativity.  The more you use, the more you have.

Dream big and dare to fail.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.

It's your place in the world; it's your life. Go on and do all you can with it, and make it the life you want to live.
