I have seen many storms in my life. Most storms have caught me by surprise, so I had to learn very quickly to look further and understand that I am not capable of controlling the weather, to exercise the art of patience and to respect the fury of nature.

If we could sell our experiences for what they cost us, we'd all be millionaires. The same external events or circumstances affect no two people alike; even with perfectly similar surroundings every one lives in a world of his own. Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors. We are not determined by our experiences, but are self-determined by the meaning we give to them. We are all the lucky vacationers enjoying our stay in Hotel Earth. Remember, some of the best times of your life haven't even happened yet. You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man. Learn from the mistakes of others... you can't live long enough to make them all yourselves. Today is a most unusual day, because we have never lived it before; we will never live it again; it is the only day we have.
