And if it can’t be fun, what’s the point?

I’ve always felt that a lot of modern art is a con, and that the most successful painters are often better salesmen and promoters than they are artists.

I’m intelligent. Some people would say I’m very, very, very intelligent.

{on Mexico] They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

Give yourself a little freedom to develop into something or someone you’d actually like to be.

We’re rounding ’em up in a very humane way, in a very nice way. And they’re going to be happy because they want to be legalized. And, by the way, I know it doesn’t sound nice. But not everything is nice.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.

Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconcious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character.

Last but not least, I would say you should have big dreams, full dreams, not half dreams. You know, it’s very simple. You can’t put a large box in a small box. Well, you cannot put a full life in a small dream box.

Excellence is attained when you care more than others think is wise; risk more than others think is safe; dream more than others think is practical; expect more than others think is possible.

Wisdom is your perspective on life, your sense of balance, your understanding of how the various parts and principles apply and relate to each other. It embraces judgment, discernment, comprehension. It is a gestalt or oneness, and integrated wholeness.

Thinking expansively includes seeing what is possible and making it happen.

Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.

It is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist.

When you are tough on yourself, life is going to be infinitely easier on you.

Better an ‘oops’ than a ‘what if’.

It is true that integrity alone won’t make you a leader, but without integrity you will never be one.

You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.

Seek not outside yourself for success lies within.

I try to learn from the past, but I plan for the future by focusing exclusively on the present. That’s were the fun is.

Vision is not enough – it must be combined with venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps – we must step up the stairs.
