Sometimes I worry about being a success in a mediocre world.

Inspiration is for amateurs. I just get to work.

The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

We are guided by outcomes, not ideology. We have a policy of principled realism, rooted in shared goals, interests, and values. That realism forces us to confront a question facing every leader and nation in this room. It is a question we cannot escape or avoid. We will slide down the path of complacency, numb to the challenges, threats, and even wars that we face. Or do we have enough strength and pride to confront those dangers today, so that our citizens can enjoy peace and prosperity tomorrow?

Being productive gives people a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment that loafing never can.

You cannot push anyone up the ladder unless he is willing to climb.

If you don’t see yourself as a winner, then you cannot perform as a winner.

All great things begin with a vision … a dream.

People do make their luck by daring to follow their instincts, taking risks and embracing every possibility.

Some people do really find fault like there’s a reward for it.

Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.

When a true genius appears in this world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.

My favorite writers are all Jews – David, Solomon, Matthew, Mark – well, you get the picture.

Don’t underestimate yourself or your possibilities.
