I have never met a man so ignorant that I couldn’t learn something from him.
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.
Everything is blooming most recklessly: if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.[Alles blüht natürlich auf das Rücksichtsloseste: wären es Stimmen statt der Farben: es gäbe ein unglaubliches Geschrei bis in die Nacht hinein.]
Change your thoughts and you change your world.
Believe you can and you’re halfway there.
Be loved, be admired, be necessary; be somebody.
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.
You have to count on living every single day in a way you believe will make you feel good about your life – so that if it were over tomorrow, you’d be content with yourself.
You have competition every day because you set such high standards for yourself that you have to go out every day and live up to that.
You can’t do it unless you can imagine it.
You can’t change the wind but you can set your sails.
