“You can only do good if you feel good.”

When you are in the valley, keep your goal firmly in view and you will get the renewed energy to continue the climb.

Success is a process that continues, not a status that you reach. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.

One characteristic of winners is they always look upon themselves as a do it yourself project.

Never become so much of an expert that you stop gaining expertise. View life as a continuous learning experience.

You always project on the outside how you feel on the inside.

Opportunity never knocks; it is within you.

A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown.

The truly successful person inspires others to do more than they have thought possible for themselves.

Better to seek change by inspiration, than out of desperation.

Listen to the desires of your children. Encourage them and then give them the autonomy to make their own decision.

The less you try to impress, the more impressive you are.

The trouble with most of us is that we stop trying in trying times.

How you spend your time is far more important than all the material possessions you may own or positions you may attain.

Procrastination is the fear of success.

When you visualize, then you materialize. If you’ve been there in the mind you’ll go there in the body.

I gave him my heart, and he took and pinched it to death; and flung it back to me. People feel with their hearts, Ellen, and since he has destroyed mine, I have not power to feel for him.

If you have a company called x and today you feel the price is very high. Next year it could perform very well but the price may not perform. So in the stock market what happens is buy on the rumor, sell on the news.

You have left me so long to struggle against death, alone, that I feel and see only death! I feel like death!

I feel like I have always played within the rules. I would never break the rules.

Individuals sometimes feel insignificant and doubt that one person can really make a difference in this world. Well, believe me, one person can.

I’ve only had two rules. Do all you can and do it the best you can. It’s the only way you ever get that feeling of accomplishing something.

It’s weird, because the ideas in my songs aren’t controversial to me. I feel like I should be able to sing about anything.
