“The Guide says there is an art to flying", said Ford, "or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” 

“There's always a moment when you start to fall out of love, whether it's with a person or an idea or a cause, even if it's one you only narrate to yourself years after the event: a tiny thing, a wrong word, a false note, which means that things can never be quite the same again.” 

“Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I always think that the chances of finding out what really is going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say hang the sense of it and just keep yourself occupied.” 

Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.

Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day.

“Well, if you’re true to yourself you’re going to be true to everyone else.”

“You have to apply yourself each day to becoming a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better.”

Do not allow yourselves to be disheartened by any failure as long as you have done your best.

We interfere with God’s plans when we push in someone or something else not suitable for us. Be strict with yourself, and then be very strict with what you are receiving from the outside.

Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself. Go forward and make your dreams come true.

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” 

It is easy to live for others, everybody does. I call on you to live for yourself.

It is easy to live for others, everybody does. I call on you to live for yourself.

Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles. 

Insist on yourself; never imitate. Your own gift you can present every moment with the cumulative force of a whole life’s cultivation: but of the adopted talent of another, you gave only an extemporaneous, half possession. 

Be yourself; no base imitator of another, but your best self.

The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself. If we don't have that we never grow, we never learn, and sure as heck we should never teach.

Make the most of yourself for that is all there is of you.

You will face many defeats in your life, but never let yourself be defeated.

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

You will face many defeats in your life, but never let yourself be defeated.

It's one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, to forgive. Forgive everybody.

Do not waste yourself in rejection, nor bark against the bad, but chant the beauty of the good.
