Greatness is not a gift that one can give to another, but rather is a thief's relic that we must take for ourselves.

Never overestimate the strength of the torchbearer's arm, for even the strongest arms grow weary.

Don’t let realism keep you from doing what you feel you need to do, even if you think it’s hopeless.

Never give up on the possibilities or accept what is when you can see it for what it could be.

If you plan for failure, then you are expecting to fail. If you plan for success, you’ll be successful. Once you start making a ‘Plan B’, you distract from ‘Plan A’, and the moment you start believing there are other options, you start settling for less.

When life brings you mountains, you don’t waste your time asking why; you spend your time climbing over them.
