You’ve got to jump off the cliff all the time and build your wings on the way down.

You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.

Happiness quite unshared can scarcely be called happiness — it has no taste.

There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in.

Find a purpose to serve, not a lifestyle to live.

There is only one proof of ability — action.

Dismiss whatever insults your own soul.

Everything I’ve ever done that’s valuable is something I was terrified to try.

Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.

Life is not what one lived, but what one remembers and how one remembers it.

Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.

I dreamed I called you on the telephone to say: Be kinder to yourself.
