A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.
You only get one life. It’s actually your duty to live it as fully as possible.
Whenever you want to achieve something, keep your eyes open, concentrate and make sure you know exactly what it is you want. No one can hit their target with their eyes closed.
Work without love is slavery.
I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and the impossible.
Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
If you know the why, you can live any how.
Ignore all hatred and criticism. Live for what you create, and die protecting it.
Live as though life were created for you.
Do nothing that is of no use.
Do something worth remembering.
If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work, and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea.
