“You are not rich until you have a rich heart.”

Stop giving other people the power to control your happiness, your mind, and your life. If you don’t take control of yourself and your own life, someone else is bound to try.

To have what you have never had, you have to do what you have never done.

Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody’s watching, and doing as you say you would do.

Accept yourself, love yourself, and keep moving forward. If you want to fly, you have to give up what weighs you down.

Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.

Being grateful does not mean that everything is necessarily good. It just means that you can accept it as a gift.

Do not fear failure but rather fear not trying.

Time doesn’t heal emotional pain, you need to learn how to let go.

Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.

You are in charge of your own happiness; you don’t need to wait for other people’s permission to be happy.

Everyone you meet is a part of your journey, but not all of them are meant to stay in your life. Some people are just passing through to bring you gifts; either they’re blessings or lessons.

Until you step into the unknown, you don’t know what you’re made of.

Believe in your heart that you’re meant to live a life full of passion, purpose, magic and miracles.

The past is a place of reference, not a place of residence; the past is a place of learning, not a place of living.

Sometimes all a person wants is an empathetic ear; all he or she needs is to talk it out. Just offering a listening ear and an understanding heart for his or her suffering can be a big comfort.

The more you feed your mind with positive thoughts, the more you can attract great things into your life.

Neither money pays, nor name pays, nor fame, nor learning; it is CHARACTER that cleave through adamantine walls of difference.

Before the film begins shooting, in your head, you need to be the character. You have to convince yourself somehow.

Money will not purchase character or good government.

The only strong opinion that I have about myself is that I don’t have any opinions.

Make small commitments and keep them. Be a light, not a judge. Be a model, not a critic. Be a part of the solution, not the problem.

I’m not funny. What I am is brave.

Character is like my fingerprint; it identifies me from everyone else in the world. It says who I am and where I am headed.

You spend your life training to be an actor, observing people’s characteristics so that you can design characters around what you’ve seen.
