“One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.”

DO THY BEST
Gracious acceptance is an art—an art which most never bother to cultivate. We think that we have to learn how to give, but we forget about accepting things, which can be much harder than giving... Accepting another person's gift is allowing him to express his feelings for you. #<Author:0x00005581089bb728>
GIVING BACK
Each time we face our fear, we gain strength, courage and confidence in the doing. #<Author:0x0000558108989e08>

PATIENCE
If I take care of my character, my reputation will take care of itself. #<Author:0x0000558108a81a68>
CHARACTER
While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. #<Author:0x00007f0a517fb4f0>
INSPIRATION
Joy; the kind of happiness that doesn’t depend on what happens. #<Author:0x00007f0a51712fc0>
JOY
To be creative means to be in love with life. You can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a little more dance to it. #<Author:0x00007f0a51477680>
