Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Beauty without expression tires.

Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.

To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.

The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

You will soon break the bow if you keep it always stretched.
