“Are some people destined for a great fate, or to do great things? Or is it only that they're born somehow with that great passion -- and if they find themselves in the right circumstances, then things happen? It's the sort of thing you wonder...”

“Whatever your passion is - even if you're great at it - it can't be the only thing you do... If you do, you'll be great at that one thing... and bad at everything else... Getting that balance is not easy...”

“People do not become great by doing great things. They do great things because they are great.”

“Odd people do good things. There are good and bad in all people and that’s why it’s worth appealing to the good in people. Some prickly characters do some great things and some quite affable and nice characters do bad things. We’re a mixed bunch, you know, and this is about human beings doing something great.”

“Believe deep down in your heart that you're destined to do great things.”

“Being single is a great thing. Some people can't do it -- or are afraid to do it. Many people lose themselves in their relationships and forget who they are instead of learning from the other person and bettering themselves.”
