“Authenticity means to be the author of your own life.” “Today is yesterday’s pupil.” “Life is made up of a series of judgments on insufficient data, and if we waited to run down all our doubts, it would flow past us.” “If you can’t be seven feet tall, be seven feet smart.” “Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.”
