To help yourself, you must be yourself. Be the best that you can be. When you make a mistake, learn from it, pick yourself up and move on.

Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.

I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.

I will do my best. That is all I can do. I ask for your help - and God's.
