I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, you're doing something.
A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for.
The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
A ship is always safe at the shore, but that is not what it is built for.
If you dare nothing, then when the day is over, nothing is all you will have gained.
If we wait until we’re ready, we’ll be waiting for the rest of our lives.
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.
Live fast. Die young. Be wild. Have fun.
You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.
Buy the ticket, take the ride.
It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.
Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgement that something is more important than fear; The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all.

Go forth and set the world on fire.
