Only when you are broken into pieces can you realize who you are - what you are - a bolt of lightning, that once has its course set for a purpose, cannot be stopped even by the gods of the heavens.

Your possibilities are limited only by your imagination.

Genes don't carry dreams, not hereditarily that is, determination does.

I don't have a college degree, I don't come from money or from an academic family, I didn't have any resourceful acquaintance to speak of, yet today I am at the forefront of humankind's struggle for inclusion, justice and equality. All I had was a vision and an unending persistence. Each failure made me even more stubborn towards my vision - each failure gave me an inexplicable bliss that carried me further.

What the society needs is an MBA, that is Master of Benevolent Activism - what the society needs is an MD, that is Maverick of Determination - what the society needs is a PHD, that is Doctor of Perspiring Humanism.

Neither fortune, nor opportunity, nor ancestry, nor wealth - nothing determines your destiny - there is only one question that determines your destiny - will you give up after coming all this way?

Achievement is 60 percent determination, 40 percent action

Move ahead with an emboldened chest and let all obstructions turn to dust as they collide with your gargantuan determination.

A strong character stands up with head held high, despite their wounds, not without wounds.
