“courage is being scared to death - and saddling up anyway"

"A goal, A love and A dream give you total control over your body and your life”

“My hope is that the description of God's love in my life will give you the freedom and the courage to discover... God's love in yours.”

“Follow your passion, give your goals your best shot and care about people you love.”

“I don't think you've been in love. Not recently, anyway. I'm not sure you remember what it's like. It compromises you. It takes over your body. Like a bareword. I think love is a bareword.”

“If you can dream it, you can do it. Never give up on your dreams.”

“Learn as if you were not reaching your goal and as though you were scared of missing it”

“You have to dream, you have to have a vision, and you have to set a goal for yourself that might even scare you a little because sometimes that seems far beyond your reach.”

“Your body must become familiar with its death — in all its possible forms and degrees — as a self-evident, imminent, and emotionally neutral step on the way towards the goal you have found worthy of your life.”

“You control your future, your destiny. What you think about comes about. By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands - your own.”

“Love, love, love, says Percy.
And hurry as fast as you can
along the shining beach, or the rubble, or the dust.

Then, go to sleep.
Give up your body heat, your beating heart.
Then, trust.”
