“You cannot fulfill a purpose; it is like a guiding star on the horizon- forever pursued but never reached.”
“When you follow a star you know you will never reach that star; rather it will guide you to where you want to go. ... So it is with the world. It will only ever lead you back to yourself.”
“You cannot fulfil God's purposes for your life while focusing on your own plans. ”
“Ideals are like stars; you will not succeed in touching them with your hands, but like the sea fearing man on the desert of waters, you choose them as your guides, and following them, you reach your destiny”
“Being successful and fulfilling your lifes purpose are not at all the same thing; You can reach all your personal goals, become a raving success by the worlds standard and still miss your purpose in this life.”
“When you reach the stars, boy, yes, and live there forever, all the fears will go, and Death himself will die.”
