“I am fundamentally an optimist. Whether that comes from nature or nurture, I cannot say. Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed toward the sun, one's feet moving forward.

― Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom: Autobiography of Nelson Mandela

“Remember: the time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself. Life's cruelest irony.”

“Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination.”
