“No matter what happens, always be yourself.”

“First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.”

“Destiny is not a matter of chance. It is a matter of choice.”

“Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.”

“Feeling sorry for yourself, and your present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly have.”

“Always avoid the acute angle.”

“You are going to survive. And good things are going to start to happen again. And one day you are going to look back and this will not even be such a bad thing”
