You can’t let your failures define you. You have to let your failures teach you.

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

You have to go head, even if no one goes with you.

A poet must never make a statement simply because it is sounds poetically exciting; he must also believe it to be true.
