Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.

The beginning of wisdom is to do away with fear.

Out of the wreck I rise.

There is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it. If only we're brave enough to be it.

I do not think it worth while to wait for enjoyment until there is some real opportunity for it.

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.

Words empowered by justice can never be silenced.

I would rather have 30 minutes of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special.

Never stay up on the barren heights of cleverness, but come down into the green valleys of silliness.

Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.

That virtue we appreciate is as much ours as another’s. We see so much only as we possess.

There is only one success... to be able to spend your life in your own way.
