A few of my favorites:
-if you envy a person’s life, you must envy the entire life and not just part of it
-quality is remembered long after price is forgotten
-only he is lost who has given himself up for lost
-it is you against the universe, and you will not win, but you get to make *your* moves, not them

1. Make yourself big in your life.
2. Do your thing and the world will catch up.
3. Operate out of your imagination and not your memory.
4. Once your future becomes relatively predictable, it’s no longer a future, it’s past. You’ve lived it, time to move on.
5. Life loves the liver of it. Courage is the most important of all virtues.
