The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering.

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.

You are always free to change your mind and choose a different future, or a different past.

Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success.

The truth is on the march and nothing will stop it.

Thought is the wind, knowledge the sail, and mankind the vessel.

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

It's inspirational to see someone who is dying smile.

The only thing that ultimately matters is to eat an ice-cream cone, play a slide trombone, plant a small tree, good God, now you're free.
