“The only way when your thirst for excellence is satisfied is when you take up the challenge to do a little more every day than you have already been doing every day!”
“A thought can advance your life in the right direction only when it answers questions which
were asked by your soul. A thought which was first borrowed from someone else and then
accepted by your mind and memory does not really much influence your life, and sometimes

Learn, both from your teachers and from the books which you read, only those things which
you really need and which you really want to know.”

was! He thought I'd kill him. Why should I kill him? My hand faltered. And they gave me the St.
George Cross. I understand nothing, nothing!”
“Our memories are not totally fact or completely fiction. They are a conglomeration of the thoughts that we put together to explain to ourselves who we are.
