"People take chances every now and then, and you don't want to disappoint them."

"I don't want easy. Easy doesn't make you grow. Easy doesn't make you think."

"When you think everything is someone else's fault, you suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy."

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And more important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. "

"Courage is knowing what not to fear."

"Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world... risk being seen in all your glory."

"I live by 'Go big or go home'... That's with everything. It's like either commit and go for it or don't do it at all. I apply that to everything. I apply that to relationships, I apply that to sport, I apply that to everything. That's what I live by. That's how I like it."

"It's insecurity that is always chasing you and standing in the way of your dreams."

"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen."

"It is not enough that we do our best; sometimes we must do what is required."

"I grew up taking risks. I'm not the kind of guy that lets anything keep me down."
