"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." |

Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, but the realization of how much you already have. |
“If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.” |
“Today we are engaged in a deadly global struggle for those who would intimidate, torture, and murder people for exercising the most basic freedoms. If we are to win this struggle and spread those freedoms, we must keep our own moral compass pointed in a true direction.” |
A wise man will not proselytize you. If you are willing and eager, he may guide you to find your own answers. He will not push you because he is on his own quest. |
A government that is big enough to give you all you want is big enough to take it all away. |

Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men. |
"I have enough HYPOCRISY in my life without religion!" |
"Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." |
“A ship in harbor is safe, but that’s not why ships are built.” |
"The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." |
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. |
“To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed.” |
