"When you work you are a flute through whose heart the whispering of the hours turns to music. To love life through labor is to be intimate with life's inmost secret. All work is empty save when there is love, for work is love made visible." 
"We cannot understand what happens in the universe. What is glorious in it is united with what is full of horror. What is full of meaning is united to what is senseless. The spirit of the universe is at once creative and destructive - it creates while it destroys and destroys while it creates, and therefore it remains to us a riddle. And we must inevitably resign ourselves to this."
¨Whatever you can do or imagine, begin it; boldness has beauty, magic, and power in it."
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."
"Only as high as I reach can I grow, only as far as I seek can I go, only as deep as I look can I see, only as much as I dream can I be."
"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning."
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined."
"It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that they are difficult." 
"Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul."
William Ernest Henley
"Le véritable voyage de découverte ne consiste pas à chercher de nouveaux paysages, mais à avoir de nouveaux yeux."
"Cuando creíamos que teníamos todas las respuestas, de pronto, cambiaron todas las preguntas."
"Unsere Wünsche sind die Vorboten der Fähigkeiten, die in uns liegen."
"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." 
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
