I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman.

The great courageous act that we must all do is to have the courage to step out of our history and past so that we can live our dreams.

Don't ever give up. Who cares how long it takes or how many times you try. Your only competition is yourself. And when you finally succeed, the struggle will all be worth it.

Work while you have the light. You are responsible for the talent that has been entrusted to you.

Reason and free inquiry are the only effectual agents against error.

Success is not about seeking constant external approval; it's about staying focused on your own path and not getting distracted by the opinions of others.

You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.
