Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you'd have preferred to talk.
Our entire life consists ultimately in accepting ourselves as we are.
Surround yourself with people who are smarter than you and incite constructive criticism.
The things that matter are never easy.
You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching.
Don't lose a diamond while chasing glitter.

Anyone can hold the helm when the sea is calm.
Each of our acts makes a statement as to our purpose.

No one can whistle a symphony. It takes a whole orchestra to play it.
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of live is lost.
