Just as courage is the danger of life, so is fear its safeguard.

You cannot tell from appearances how things will go. Sometimes imagination makes things out far worse than they are; yet without imagination not much can be done. Those people who are imaginative see many more dangers than perhaps exist; certainly many more than will happen; but then they must also pray to be given that extra courage to carry this far-reaching imagination.

Life at its noblest leaves mere happiness far behind; and indeed cannot endure it. Happiness is not the object of life: life has no object: it is an end in itself; and courage consists in the readiness to sacrifice happiness for an intenser quality of life.

I'm a role model for those who dare to be different. For those who dare to take a stand in their life and have an opinion.

Every man gives his life for what he believes ... one life is all we have to live and we live it according to what we believe.

Life could be wonderful if people would leave you alone.
