“Don’t be afraid to start over. This time you’re not starting from scratch, you’re starting from experience.”

“To me, beauty is natural beauty. If you’re naturally yourself, you’re beautiful.”

“I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.”

“Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.”

“Characterize people by their actions, and you will never be fooled by their words.”

“Why don’t you focus on where you’re going and less on where you came from?”

Successful people do what unsuccessful people are not willing to do. Don’t wish it were easier; wish you were better.
