Live each day as if your life had just begun.

Correction does much, but encouragement does more.

The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. Whatever you think you can do, or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, power and grace.

Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.

At the moment of commitment the entire universe conspires to assist you.

Courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success.

There was nothing you couldn't do if you wanted it bad enough, and were willing to work hard enough to get it.

For the first few years we paid all the bills first and divided what was left as salary. Sometimes that was $50 a week.

All it takes is one good person to restore hope.

Nothing in our lives is a mere insignificant detail to God.

I don't have a 10-octave range. No human being has a 10-octave range.
