A book can open the mind, free the heart, and speak to the soul.

Books are a staircase to unknown worlds.

You need to believe in your passion, no matter how stupid or insane that might make you look to the rest of the world.

Being awesome really comes down to having confidence.

What do you want for your life? And how are you going to get it? Figure that out. And then follow me to gloryville.

Everyone can be awesome if they want it bad enough. And I don't believe that anyone wants to be average. I think everybody desires greatness, at least at some point in their life.

Fantasy stories will always be popular, as there are always readers who are willing to escape, freely, to the worlds that the authors create, and spend time with the characters we give life to.

Most of the awesome people I know are just normal people who were insanely driven.

The best thing about money is not worrying about money.

The hues of the opal, the light of the diamond, are not to be seen if the eye is too near.

A man will go to war, fight and die for his country. But he won't get a bikini wax.

Diseases crucify the soul of man, attenuate our bodies, dry them, wither them, rivel them up like old apples, make them as so many Anatomies.

Such is the constitution of Man that labor may be said to be its own re-ward.
