"I stand here before you not as a prophet, but as a humble servant of you, the people."

"There is nothing I fear more than doing nothing, yet that is exactly what I am doing."

"Live life as though nobody is watching, and express yourself as though everyone is listening."

"Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do."

"The quality of mercy is not strained; it droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath."
