“I am not a has-been. I am a will be.”

“I’m not ashamed of what I am - of how I pass through this life. What I am has given me the strength to do it. At my lowest ebb I have never contemplated suicide. I value what is here too much. I have a contribution to make. I am not just take up space in this life. I can add something to the lives I touch. I don’t like everything I know about myself, and I’ll never be satisfied, but nobody’s perfect. I’m not sure where the next years will take me - what they will hold - but I’m open to suggestions.”

“If there was one thing I had never been, it was mysterious, and if there was one thing I had never done, it was not talk.”

“Imagination is the highest kite that can fly.”

“To fly as fast as thought, you must begin by knowing that you have already arrived.”

“You can't start worrying about what's going to happen. You get spastic enough worrying about what's happening now.”

“When you talk about a great actor, you're not talking about Tom Cruise.”
