My parents created a world in which the only ­barrier to your success is your own imagination.

You can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.

The best stories are often true...The narrative of human life is most beautiful when told truthfully and without boundaries.

Perfect is boring and dreams are not real. Just... do. So you think, "I wish I could travel." Great. Sell your crappy car, buy a ticket to Bangkok, and go. Right now. I'm serious.

I think a lot of people dream. And while they are busy dreaming, the really happy people, the really successful people, the really interesting, engaged, powerful people, are busy doing.

The only limit to success is your own imagination.

The expected is what keeps us steady. It's the unexpected that changes our lives forever.

Cynicism is a choice. Optimism is a better choice.

Nobody got anything great by playing it safe.

Ditch the dream and be a doer.

Boundaries don't keep other people out, they fence you in.

The purpose of life is soul growth. We are here to become transcendent and to become one with God. There is no more to life than this. In other words, we are here to love.

Nay, you don't throw away those misplaced beads.. you find them, pick them up and make a new necklace.. probably not as beautiful as you imagined..but wearable nevertheless..

She wasn't scared of going deep, deep down in a world of no air and little light

Let us throw away our candles and our torches. Let us flood the cities with light. Let us bring a new light to men! -Equality 7-2521

Its disheartening to read the really negative stuff, but at the same time, I know who I am, and Im comfortable with myself.

Also for me it was different because I play a lot of villains and in this one I play a dad and I play a good guy, basically. He's the Secretary of the Treasury. I never had a job like that.

I'm glad movies aren't going to please everybody, they can't. But what they have to be is recognisable. I don't equate myself with a master painter, but I think you can recognise my films.

You have no idea how life-giving it is to find around one a youth that agrees not to bury one on the spot.

Do you know why God subjects you to so many miseries? That He may bestow on you the riches of heaven.

It's a different feeling; I like touring and playing on the road better, but recording has its good spots.
