“No thought lives in your head rent-free.” Each thought you have will either be an investment or a cost.

Your outer world is a reflection of your inner world.

If you want to move to a new level in your life, you must break through your comfort zone and practice doing things that are not comfortable.

If you want to make a permanent change, stop focusing on the size of your problems and start focusing on the size of you!

If you are willing to do only what's easy, life will be hard. But if you are willing to do what's hard, life will be easy.

Rich people play the money game to win. Poor people play the money game to not lose.

Where attention goes, energy flows and results show.

In my experience, getting rich takes focus, courage, knowledge, expertise, 100 percent of your effort, a never-give-up attitude and of course a rich mind-set.

From now on, I want you to practice reframing other people's negativity as a reminder of how not to be.

Happy people build their inner world; unhappy people blame their outer world.

Successful people have fear, successful people have doubts, and successful people have worries. They just don't let these feelings stop them.

Drown those degrading thoughts.

Was aus Liebe getan wird, geschieht immer jenseits von Gut und Böse. (What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.)

A good listener is a witness, not a judge of your experience.

I'd get a shell, they weighed about 80 pounds I think, but when I was 19 or 20 that was nothing. I'd take a shell and a bag of powder, I'd put it in the hoist and then I would send it up to the gun.

The paternalist is a sentimentalist at heart, and the sentimentalist is always potentially cruel.

I don’t look like a lot of other people, you know what I mean? I look like I’m 12.

You may shoot me with your words, you may cut me with your eyes, you may kill me with your hatefulness, but still, like air, I'll rise!

The only way for peace between the races is a separation of the races.

I think parts of my soul have been saved by my writing, not in the sense of escaping death, but escaping the death of the moment, perhaps.

I think it almost all has to do with coming at writing from an acting perspective, because I didn't, like, study writing. I studied acting.
