“Think about it: What’s the worst thing that can happen to you if you just totally go for it?”

Do what others refuse to do.

No matter how exceptional your product, you won’t benefit financially if you can’t sell it.

Don’t be confused by what looks like luck to you. Lucky people don’t make successful people; people who completely commit themselves to success seem to get lucky in life.

Realistic thinking is based on what others think is possible-but they are not you and have no way of knowing your potential and purposes.

Massive success is the best revenge.

Your family is depending on you. No better reason to bring all your game all the time.

I’m going to do anything and everything, remove every boulder, every hurdle and every problem out of my way to make my dreams come true.

Obscurity is a bigger problem than money.

Treating success as an option is one of the major reasons why more people don’t create it for themselves-and why most people don’t even get close to living up to their full potential.

As long as you are alive, you will either live to accomplish your own goals and dreams or be used as a resource to accomplish someone else’s.

Wake up! No one is going to save you. No one is going to take care of your family or your retirement. No one is going to “make things” work out for you. The only way to do so is to utilize every moment of every day at 10X levels.

You will never be admired without being criticized first.

Don’t go to work to work, go to work to prosper.

Success is your duty, obligation and responsibility.

Companies that only focus on expense reduction are all but dead as they will find themselves sooner or later unable to reduce anymore.

Rich people use debt to leverage investments and grow cash flows. Poor people use debt to buy things that make rich people richer.

We’re all like detectives. We want to figure things out. Life, you know, we want to figure out life, and we want to figure out what’s going on, so it’s beautiful. It’s beautiful that people are thinking.

We are what we think we are. The habitual inclination of our thoughts determines our talents and abilities, and our personality. So whatever you want to be, start to develop that pattern now.

I think quite often when you have a hell of a lot more money and time, as you very much do on a big studio film, you don’t necessarily have to make the decisions right there. You can always goback and reshoot it.

I think the word of the United States has been as good as gold in its international dealings and its agreements.

People always think I’m taller than I am – not just because of the shoes I wear but because of the way I dress. It’s all relatively streamlined.

I think we brought to the world, the United States anyway, the whole idea of boycotting as a nonviolent tactic. I think we showed the world that nonviolence can work to make social change.

Beyoncé built her f–king foundation from the bottom. I think that’s the exact career every female artist wants to have.

Don’t ever think I am fragile because I asked you to handle me with care. It was not a plea, it was a warning. My strength keeps me safe but I can’t say the same for you.
