"The world changes according to the way people see it, and if you alter even by a millimeter the way people look at reality, then you can change the world."

"I would rather be a black man in America than a white man anywhere else."

"Between me and the other world there is ever an unasked question."

"The best part of living is knowing you survived."

"The world needs heroes."

"Life is too short to live poorly."

"I'd rather be an optimist and be wrong than a pessimist and be right"
