We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. The old skin has to be shed before the new one can come. –

It’s only when a man tames his own demons that he becomes the king of himself if not of the world.

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging.

Wisdom and foolishness are practically the same. Both are indifferent to the opinions of the world.
