One day in retrospect the years of struggle will strike you as the most beautiful.

I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

Enthusiasm is the great hill-climber.

April, dressed in all his trim, hath put a spirit of youth in everything.

You make your life meaningful by applying meaning to it.

The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.

I found my place when I stopped looking for it.

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention… To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.

It isn't a sadness, but a joy, that we don't do the same things for the length of our lives.

It isn't just talent. You have to have something else. You have to have a kind of nerve.

We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.
