To avoid criticism, do nothiong, say nothing, and be nothing.

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

Do not stop thinking of life as an adventure. You have no security unless you can live bravely, excitingly, and imaginatively; unless you can choose a challenge instead of a competence.

Imperfection is beauty; Madness is genius. And it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.

The quieter you become, the more you can hear.

The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell.

The Roots of our Problems are: Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality, Science without humanity, Worship without sacrifice, Politics without principles.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Humanity is my Religion. Religion, Ethnicity, Sex, Beliefs or Race should not decide about how worth you are. We all are connected to each other - through Love, Respect and Fairness.

Under certain circumstances, you may need to take steps to counteract someone else's wrongdoing, but it's better to do so without anger. That will be more effective, because when your mind is overwhelmed by a disturbing emotion like anger, the action you take may not be appropriate.

Any deed done for someone else is a kind one when you don’t expect something in return.

All human unhappiness comes from not facing reality squarely, exactly as it is.

Doubt everything. Find your own light.

There are two rules for success:

1. Never tell everything you know.

For someone to be mad, they would first have to care.

Every accomplishment starts with a decision to try.

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone amateur built the ark. A large group of professionals built the Titanic.

You are who you choose to be.

A photographer went to a socialite party in New York. As he entered the front door, the host said, "I love your pictures -- they're wonderful; you must have a fantastic camera." He said nothing until dinner was finished, then: "That was a wonderful dinner; you must have a terrific stove."

If it isn't written down, it doesn't exist.
