20 Quotes by Jean-Philippe Soulé

The day we stop dreaming is the day we stop living

Dreams aren’t fantasies to keep in the back of our mind, they are life goals to be pursued

The only limits are the ones we set for ourselves

I didn’t want my life to be an occasional adventure. I wanted adventure to be my life.

Feeling the need to be perfect is a curse. It didn’t make me perfect, it only prevented me from enjoying the moment because I couldn’t be satisfied with just being the best I could be.
