"Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny."
"If the consequences are the same it is always better to assume the more limited antecedent, since in things of nature the limited, as being better, is sure to be found, wherever possible, rather than the unlimited."

"Be a free thinker and don't accept everything you hear as truth. Be critical and evaluate what you believe in."
"Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom."
"Criticism is something we can avoid easily by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing."
"The most important relationship we can all have is the one you have with yourself, the most important journey you can take is one of self-discovery. To know yourself, you must spend time with yourself, you must not be afraid to be alone. Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom."
"Happiness is a quality of the soul...not a function of one's material circumstances."
