When I first heard [Elvis Presley's] voice I just knew that I wasn't going to work for anybody; and nobody was going to be my boss. Hearing him for the first time was like busting out of jail.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.

There is no greatness where there is no simplicity, goodness and truth.

If you stay in your heart you will always be inspired and if you are inspired you will always be enthusiastic.

Just as one candle lights another and can light thousands of other candles, so one heart illuminates another heart and can illuminate thousands of other hearts.
