“You can either be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It all depends on how you view your life.”

“I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It's all a question of how I view my life.”

“Imagine in vibrant detail your heart’s desire—a reality only you can envision, an adventure only you can direct.Then cradle your creation. Caress it. Mold it. Coddle it until it comes to life.And when your precious treasure grows so grand as to steal your breath away, set it free for all the world to experience. For that is how you live your dreams.”

“Facing the difficulties, I can choose either to be a poor victim or a great adventurer.”

“Tragedy depends on the way you see it. If you chose to be a victim of the world, anything which happens to you will feed that dark side of your soul, where you consider yourself wronged, suffering, guilty and deserving punishment. If you choose to be an adventurer, the changes - even the inevitable losses, since everything in this world changes - can cause some pain, but will soon thrust you forward, forcing you to react.”

“You can learn to do anything in the world if your life depends on it and if you can read.”
