Men have become tools of their tools.

Sticking feathers up your butt doesnt make you a chicken

Above all, be true to yourself, and if you cannot put your heart in it, take yourself out of it.

You must give up the life you planned in order to have the life that is waiting for you.

The reward for conformity is that everyone likes you but yourself.

Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.


The era we are living in today is a dream coming true.

Or heritage and ideals, our code and standards - the things we live by and teach our children - are preserved or diminished by how freely we exchange ideas and feelings.

You reach a point where you don't work for money.

When we consider a project, we really study it--not just the surface idea, but everything about it. And when we go into that new project, we believe in it all the way. We have confidence in our ability to do it right. And we work hard to do the best possible job

Get a good idea, and stay with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's done, and done right.

If this is coffee, please bring me some tea. But if this is tea, please bring me some coffee.

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves

People wish to be settled. Only as far as they are unsettled is there any hope for them.

True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.
