Our feelings are a feedback mechanism to us about whether we're on track or not, whether we're on course or off course.

For every reason it's not possible, there are hundreds of people who have faced the same circumstances and succeeded.

Make a conscious effort to surround yourself with positive, nourishing, and uplifting people -- people who believe in you, encourage you to go after your dreams, and applaud your victories.

Most everything that you want is just outside your comfort zone.

Decide what it is you want, write it down, review it constantly, and each day do something that moves you toward those goals.

You don't have to get it perfect, you just have to get it going. Babies don't walk the first time they try, but eventually they get it right

There are essentially two things that will make you wise -- the books you read and the people you meet.

Each of us is born with a life purpose. Identifying, acknowledging, and honoring this purpose is perhaps the most important action successful people take.

When you're nice to people, they want to be nice back to you.

If you want something different, you are going to have to do something different.

Critics are men who watch a battle from a high place then come down and shoot the survivors.

If you love something - let. If it is yours - it will come back. I love you not because of who you are, but for who I am when I'm with you.

I know that I have found fulfillment. I have an object in life, a task ... a passion.

Mine. The language of love is like that, possessive. That should be the first warning that it's not going to encourage anyone's betterment.

A little flattery will support a man through great fatigue.

There's no real formula for doing it, it's either just living life and writing down a joke you think of in the middle of the day and then pieces those together later.

Being a classical musician, you're doing many things anyway. One day you're doing Bach concerto and the next you're doing some avant-garde thing. It's just another hat that I'm allowed to wear.

At least I didn't invent a dead girlfriend

I just walked out of the room. I was like, I'm embarrassed, so I need to leave.

He that sees the Lord in the temple, the living body, by seeking Him within, can alone see Him, the Infinite, in the temple of the universe, having become the Endless Eye.
