I don’t believe in the kind of magic in my books. But I do believe something very magical can happen when you read a good book.
You can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.
You may delay, but time will not.
The price of greatness is responsibility.
Beauty will save the world.
In a gentle way, you can shake the world.
Music can change the world because it can change people.
Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.
Do something worth remembering.
Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.
Carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you.
If your plan is for one year plant rice. If your plan is for ten years plant trees. If your plan is for one hundred years educate children.
Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.
We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there “is” such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.
It's not whether you got knocked down; it's whether you get back up.
Nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.
If you haven't confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life. With confidence, you have won even before you have started.
It’s what you do in the present that will redeem the past and thereby change the future.
Be the one to stand out in the crowd.
When you do nothing you feel overwhelmed and powerless. But when you get involved you feel the sense of hope and accomplishment that comes from knowing you are working to make things better.
