If I bother to listen, I can navigate by failure just as much as I can navigate by success.

Imagination belongs to hope. It’s the creative dance of possibility.

Hope dreams into being what is possible but not yet formed.

If I’m going to have hope, I’m going to have to learn to endure disappointment.

A wish is a single unit of hope. It’s a single request for something I dearly desire.

Hope requires waiting. Waiting requires patience.

Don't be afraid that things are changing, because indeed they always are.

Without hope, I wouldn’t even try. Hope lifts me to consider new possibilities so I can stay the course of my desire, no matter what.

We cannot protect ourselves from disappointment and still live a fully engaged life.

Given that I don’t know anything, when I am making up stories about the future, why not make it a good story instead of a scary one?

When I act, I act on behalf of who or what I love. Even when I have to fight against something, it is because of what I value and love.

Don't worry about what you can't do, do what you can do!

Keep up your faith to go high and fly, even after so many pains and sorrow. You can turn from a caterpillar to a butterfly. Life gives you a second change: a call to grow.

Work is the thing that stays. Work is the thing that sees us through.

Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things, but learning another way to think about things.

Whatever torch we kindle, and whatever space it may illuminate, our horizon will always remain encircled by the depth of night.

The worst of doing one's duty was that it apparently unfitted one for doing anything else.

My mom was always the supplier of soccer balls, and so people were always knocking on my door, and trying to get me out so we could play.

The fact is that ours is the only minority you can join involuntarily, without warning, at any time. And if you live long enough, as you're increasingly likely to do, you may well join it.

You only stop learning when you quit.

Ready, fire, aim. Do it! Make it happen! Action counts. No one ever sat their way to success.
