“We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all of the power we need inside ourselves already.”

Achievable goals are the first step to self improvement.

Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.

Failure is so important. We speak about success all the time. It is the ability to resist failure or use failure that often leads to greater success. I’ve met people who don’t want to try for fear of failing.

You can have a very intense relationship with fictional characters because they are in your own head.

You must accept the reality of other people.

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.

The truth is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.

Size is no guarantee of power.

We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.

Life is too short. I only want to do things that I enjoy, or that I think are good or worth doing.

Imagination is the foundation of all invention and innovation.

But where was I to start? The world is so vast, I shall start with the country I knew best, my own. But my country is so very large. I had better start with my town. But my town, too, is large. I had best start with my street. No, my home. No, my family. Never mind, I shall start with myself.

I’ve been strong and determined all my life about many things I’ve wanted.
