True friendship withstands time, distance, and silence.

Words empowered by justice can never be silenced.

The heart is not like a box that gets filled up; it expands in size the more you love.

Success is the process itself.

Ultimately a genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

Act as if someone just said there’s no reason to be afraid.

Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.

Falsehood is so easy, truth so difficult.

It's more difficult to be simple, and it's easier to be more complicated.

I can't give you a recipe for success, but I can give you a recipe for failure: try to please everybody.

Open to whatever you experience without fighting. Let it be present just as it is. Let go of the battle.

You can't lead the people if you don't love the people. You can't save the people, if you don't serve the people.
