Failure, rejection, and looking foolish are common fears - but they are just feelings that can be conquered and removed from your thoughts. Finally, you must be willing to pay the price of hard work in order to realize your dream.”

“If you learn from defeat, you haven't really lost.”

“Love, like fire, cannot subsist without constant impulse; it ceases to live from the moment it ceases to hope or to fear.”

“When the Negro finds the courage to be free, he faces dogs and guns and clubs and fire hoses totally unafraid, and the white men with those dogs, guns, clubs and fire hoses see that the Negro they have traditionally called "boy" has become a man.”
