“...a man’s ability to dream is the most sincere form of ambition he has in his arsenal, and the only true glimmer of one’s self one has. And if one is to ever lose that ability, it’s the same as losing one’s self altogether. To reacquire this ability, to gain a new sense of 'self', one must first die...only then can he be reborn, redefined, and ultimately rediscovered.”

“To dare is to momentarily lose one’s footing. But not to dare is to lose one’s self.”

“With realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one can build a better world.”

“The ability to think for one's self depends upon one's mastery of the language.”

“Very often in everyday life one sees that by losing one's temper with someone who has already lost his, one does not gain anything but only sets out upon the path of stupidity. He who has enough self-control to stand firm at the moment when the other person is in a temper, wins in the end. It is not he who has spoken a hundred words aloud who has won; it is he who has perhaps spoken only one word.”

“Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.”
