“Always have something beautiful in sight, even if it’s just a daisy in a jelly glass”

Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something.

I never expect to lose. Even when I’m the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech.

Grind it out. Hanging on just one second longer than your competition makes you the winner.

Become someone’s hero.

Never make fun of someone who speaks broken English. It means they know another language.

Show respect for everyone who works for a living, regardless of how trivial their job.

The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.

If you’re doing your best, you won’t have any time to worry about failure.

When you can’t change the direction of the wind — adjust your sails

Marrying an old bachelor is like buying second-hand furniture.

Read carefully anything that requires your signature. Remember the big print giveth and the small print taketh away.

A true friend encourages us, comforts us, supports us like a big easy chair, offering us a safe refuge from the world.

Ask yourself if you would feel comfortable giving your two best friends a key to your house. If not, look for some new best friends.

In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins, not through strength but by perseverance.

I’ve learned that every great achievement was once considered impossible

Remember that everyone is influenced by kindness.

The audience’s reactions are more important: if people believe in the love story, it’s because they love how we’ve acted. That’s the most beautiful award. It’s very important for me, people appreciating what I do.

O innocence, how glorious and happy a portion art thou to the breast that possesses thee! thou fearest neither the eyes nor the tongues of men. Truth, the most powerful of all things, is thy strongest friend; and the brighter the light is in which thou art displayed, the more it discovers thy transcendent beauties.

I think life is perverse. It can be beautiful, but it won’t.

Books -where if people suffered, they suffered in beautiful language, not in monosyllables.

Behind every beautiful thing, there’s some kind of pain.

Beauty lay not in the thing, but in what the thing symbolized.

Beauty is no handicap if you don’t think about it.

Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.
