We are very near to greatness: one step and we are safe; can we not take the leap?

Anytime we step out boldly to make changes, we take a chance that we might fail. But the only way to get better is to try.

Safety is an illusion, and trying to protect ourselves does nothing more than protect us from experiencing a full, evolved, and juicy life.

All the aggressive actions I do to myself I would never dream of doing in my own life - I am not this kind of person. I cry if I cut myself peeling potatoes. I am taking the plane, there is turbulence, I am shaking. In performance, I become, somehow, like not a mortal.

Everything is in your face. The battle is that you're getting things from all ends like never before and the intensity is being turned up like never before. So there's a call to be set apart, and there's a call to speak the truth, and there's a call to start standing up and putting your faith in action.

I was a freelancer all through my twenties. I did about one story a month and I wanted to write fiction, so the stories that I would do were precursors to 'Sex and the City.'

I will write on the pages of history what I want them to say. I will be myself. I will speak my own name.

You will not find the treasure of your Personal Legend unless you want to live that Legend.

If God continues to give me health and a sane mind and verbal ability, I want to teach.

Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid.
