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.

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.

I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.

Love and desire are the spirit's wings to great deeds.

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

The best form of flattery is to be admired, imitated or respected. I've always felt proud our fans look up to us or feel we are inspirational.

Joy descends gently upon us like the evening dew, and does not patter down like a hailstorm.

Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom.

God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with him.
