If you work hard and you do your best, you can do anything.
Being yourself is very sexy, you know?
I love seeing new places and meeting new people. I'm sort of addicted to traveling.
My mother always taught me to think about things from other people's perspectives and think about where they're coming from.
The true test of a relationship is traveling together.
The great man is he who does not lose his child's-heart.
I think in this life it's important to be kind, be thankful, and always be creative.
There's something about having a sibling that you know will always stick with you.
Work is like a drug. I'm jonesing for more. It's gotten more addictive than I had realized. I get anxious when I have nothing to do now.
We all have competitive relationships with our siblings.
Trade. The basic system of barter exchange that you have to do really carefully or you'll end up with Dwight Howard.

Every birthday is a gift. Every day is a gift.
We all require and want respect, man or woman, black or white. It's our basic human right.
Be your own artist, and always be confident in what you're doing. If you're not going to be confident, you might as well not be doing it.
People really don't have to give you anything, so appreciate what people give you.
Falling out of love is like losing weight. It's a lot easier putting it on than taking it off.
Music changes, and I'm gonna change right along with it.
Money won't create success, the freedom to make it will.
It always seems impossible until it's done.
After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.
A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.
The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not by smashing it.
Laughter is a tranquilizer with no side effects.
You don't need to go to church to be a Christian. If you go to Taco Bell, that doesn't make you a taco.
I'm crazy, I'm nuts. Just the way my brain works. I'm not normal. I think differently.
I am constantly torn between killing myself and killing everyone around me.
We always see our worst selves. Our most vulnerable selves. We need someone else to get close enough to tell us we’re wrong. Someone we trust.
It would be too easy to say that I feel invisible. Instead, I feel painfully visible, and entirely ignored.
This is why we call people exes, I guess - because the paths that cross in the middle end up separating at the end. It's too easy to see an X as a cross-out. It's not, because there's no way to cross out something like that. The X is a diagram of two paths.
Trying to write about love is ultimately like trying to have a dictionary represent life. No matter how many words there are, there will never be enough.
It scares me how hard it is to remember life before you. I can't even make the comparisons anymore, because my memories of that time have all the depth of a photograph. It seems foolish to play games of better and worse. It's simply a matter of is and is no longer.
When things break, it's not the actual breaking that prevents them from getting back together again. It's because a little piece gets lost - the two remaining ends couldn't fit together, even if they wanted to. The whole shape has changed.
I am not the same having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world.
As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way.
Stand often in the company of dreamers. They tickle your common sense and believe you can achieve things which are impossible.
In the cold you wrap me. In my uncertainty you listen. In all my joys you celebrate. At every turn you meet me with competence and grace. What a fine dance we have together.
Begin each day as if it were on purpose.
What if we just acted like everything was easy?
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says: 'I'll try again tomorrow.'
No country can really develop unless its citizens are educated.
I dream of an Africa which is in peace with itself.
I think I think in the moment. So when I'm in character, I'm in character, and I'm obviously thinking about what's going on around me, but it's easier to do stuff when you're in character.
