When words can't make it better, hold my hand and don't let go.

Life made me an actor from birth. The world, darling, is not my stage but my audience.

Fear itself had turned out to be more dreadful than the actual doing. How crazy is that?

Almost nothing that happens is pure curse or pure blessing but a measure of both.

There are no rest stops on the road of life. Otherwise they'd be congested with traffic.

The only ship you can truly steer in this ocean is the one you're sailing. Quit trying to alter the winds; harness them.

It's been a harsh fight.You've been pummeled and knocked down. Your body aches, flesh torn and bruised. Your eyes can hardly see through a stream of blood. But you are cognizant and alive; therefore, you rise from the fight.This is life. It will test your will, your strength, and endurance. It will challenge your faith and convictions. It will scar your hopes and try your beliefs. In the end, life validates those who refuse to stay down.

Life is a puzzle, a riddle, a test, a mystery, a game—whatever challenge you wish to compare it to. Just remember, you're not the only participant; no one person holds all the answers, the pieces, or the cards. The trick to success in this life is to accumulate teammates and not opponents.

My life will not be the one you planned out for me, not unless I choose it. And that is the point—my life is the result of my own choices.
