People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I dont find myself saying, 'Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner.' I dont try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds.

It is a waste of time to be angry about my disability. One has to get on with life and I haven't done badly. People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.

Those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.

Failure is nature's plan to prepare you for great responsibilities.

“No one has ever become poor by giving.”
