An idiot with a plan can beat a genius without a plan

I’m a slow walker, but I never walk back.

Nothing is permanent in this wicked world, not even our troubles.

Courage doesn’t always roar.

I have never felt that the one thing that I am 'known for' is what I am.

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age 18.

It’s pain that changes our lives.

Self-confidence is the first requisite to great undertakings.

Confidence in the goodness of another is good proof of one’s own goodness.

Appreciation is an excellent thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us, as well.
