A força de vontade deve ser mais forte do que a habilidade. 

As pessoas não carecem de força, carecem de determinação. 

Bom mesmo é ir à luta com determinação, abraçar a vida com paixão, perder com classe e vencer com ousadia, porque o mundo pertence a quem se atreve e a vida é muito para ser insignificante.

Só é lutador quem sabe lutar consigo mesmo. 

A força não provém da capacidade física. Provém de uma vontade indomável. 

O que falta às pessoas não é força, e sim, vontade. 

Nada existe tão alto que o homem, com força de vontade, não possa apoiar a sua escada. 

Assim como o lutador, o guerreiro da luz conhece sua imensa força; e jamais luta com quem não merece a honra do combate. 

A alegria está na luta, na tentativa, no sofrimento envolvido e não na vitória propriamente dita. 

Quem luta com monstros deve velar por que, ao fazê-lo, não se transforme também em monstro. E se tu olhares, durante muito tempo, para um abismo, o abismo também olha para dentro de ti. 

Todo o homem luta com mais bravura pelos seus interesses do que pelos seus direitos. 

Quem luta contra nós reforça os nossos nervos e aguça as nossas habilidades. O nosso antagonista é quem mais nos ajuda. 

Dura é a luta contra o desejo, que compra o que quer à custa da alma. 

Não há quem sustente uma luta mais árdua do que aquele que se tenta vencer a si próprio. 

O homem é feito para a luta, não para o repouso. 

A vida é cheia de obrigações que a gente cumpre por mais vontade que tenha de as infringir deslavadamente. 

When I wasn't working I didn't know what to do with myself and sort of didn't exist, in a way, when I wasn't working, so I was like two different people. I am not like that anymore.

My work is like my vacation, so in a way every day is like Saturday.

I loved Art Tatum! And, through him, and other different jazz musicians, I actually found my technique.

You're an animal, you live, maybe this one time is your lifetime - go there. Who cares what somebody else thinks?

I went to school in New York and grew up in and out of New York. I love it, and I miss it, and every time I go back, I think, 'Why am I in Germany?' I do know that my career is really important to me, and in Germany, they've always been so much more supportive than my previous engagements in the dance world.

Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.

We reap what we sow. Choose what you nourish carefully.

I'm not really calculated enough or trained enough as a musician or songwriter to create a style in order to please people. Ultimately, I just have to do what I like to do.

'Precious' is so not P.C. What I learned from doing the film is that even though I am black, I'm prejudiced. I'm prejudiced against people who are darker than me.

I feel more comfortable when I'm somebody else, I think. When I'm taking a picture as myself, the whole idea of taking a headshot, to me, feels very false.

The spending in science and technology need to be to increased.

If we held grudges for all the idiotic things we said and did as freshman and sophomores the hallways would be silent.

The natural pattern of current astronomy is provided by the cryptic unity of nature itself belief in which is the chief act of faith of the scientist.

At my confirmation, where you get the Holy Spirit, I came down the stairs at my party and had torn, like, 80 holes in my pantyhose and said I had the Holy Spirit, and just would do things like that all the time.

In those days, when I was a little kid, I met the truer more authentic people of my life. The men were so pure, strong, honest, and faithful unto death - with an incredible sense of respect for a boss.

Watch your time; keep your eyes on your talents. Set your goals and move into action.

I think tights make a comeback out of necessity every season: you can only go so far with naked legs in the cold! You've got to protect yourself. I remember going to a fashion show and saying, 'And it's okay if I wear nude tights with this?' to the designer, who looked at me like I just killed his dog or something.

I still love things that you don't even need to pay for. Going to the beach and being around five of your friends and having a good time means so much more than going out and spending hundreds of dollars.

I'm the founder and CEO of Sama Group, a family of social enterprises - Samasource, Samahope and SamaUSA - that are working to alleviate poverty by connecting the global community to opportunity in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, the Caribbean and here in the U.S.

If I find a comedy club where no one's camera works, I'll go.

That's one of the problems with the Zeppelin stuff. It sounds ridiculous on MP3. You can't hear what's there properly.

The stress in surrealism is always upon life and thought, not on literature or technique. To a surrealist everything is dictated by the place which art has in life. Art would lose its function if it were separated from the problems of everyday living.

Set out from any point. They are all alike. They all lead to a point of departure.

If you can read, then you can recite Shakespeare. But that's not acting.
