The writer must be in it; he can't be to one side of it, ever. He has to be endangered by it. His own attitudes have to be tested in it. The best work that anybody ever writes is the work that is on the verge of embarrassing him, always.

Success is not about seeking constant external comparison; it's about embracing your unique talents and strengths and leveraging them to achieve greatness.

Do not hate anybody, because that hatred which comes out from you must, in the long run, come back to you.

Humor isn't for everyone. It's only for people who want to feel alive.

“I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took any excuse.”

You have to believe in yourself.

Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can.
