"Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them."
"I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine."
"If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you'll never get it done."
"To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities."
"Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do."
"If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of."
