“While one may encounter many defeats, one must not be defeated.”

I’ve learned that making a ‘living’ is not the same thing as ‘making a life’.

Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.

We spend precious hours fearing the inevitable. It would be wise to use that time adoring our families, cherishing our friends and living our lives.

Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution.

Nothing will work unless you do.

The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don’t know my story.

If I am not good to myself, how can I expect anyone else to be good to me?

Most people don’t grow up. Most people age. They find parking spaces, honor their credit cards, get married, have children, and call that maturity. What that is, is aging.

Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for.

Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.

When you learn, teach, when you get, give.

Don’t let the man bring you down.

Surviving is important. Thriving is elegant.

Talent is like electricity. We don’t understand electricity. We use it.

In all the world, there is no heart for me like yours. In all the world, there is no love for you like mine.

If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded.

If you live long enough, you’ll see that every victory turns into a defeat.

Anyone can deal with victory. Only the mighty can bear defeat.

One defeat does not define you.

Live your life not celebrating victories but overcoming defeats.

Reason connot defeat emotion, an emotion can only be displaced or overcome by a stronger emotion.

The weakest man is the one who is able to correct his moral defects, but doesn’t take action.

Refuse to lose, Refuse to be defeated, Refuse to have regrets.

This time will sadly defeat many people. Don’t let it defeat you.
