The first time you do something only happens once.

Freedom is something that dies unless it’s used.

All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware.

Genius, like humanity, rusts for want of use.

Nothing is inherently and invincibly young except spirit.

If you need something from somebody, always give that person a way to hand it to you.

Chance favors only the prepared mind.

I do not think it worth while to wait for enjoyment until there is some real opportunity for it.

Admire as much as you can, most people don't admire enough.

However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light.

It is only after the deepest darkness that the greatest joy can come.

Don’t be afraid to be confused. Try to remain permanently confused. Anything is possible.
