It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it.
You were once wild here. Don’t let them tame you.
The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
We can’t be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don’t have something better.
If you dare nothing, then when the day is over, nothing is all you will have gained.
A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.
If you have an important point to make, don’t try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time – a tremendous whack.

The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow or love. Chained by his certitude, he is a slave; he has forfeited his freedom. Only the person who risks is truly free.
If you have enemies, that’s good. It means you stood up for something.
Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain.
