Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world. Don't let anything stand in the way of the light that shines through this form. Risk being seen in all of your glory.
If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty, or back to pain and regret.
You can fail at what you don't want, so you might as well try what you do want.

A lot of good love can happen in ten years.
I haven't been as wild with my money as somebody like me might have been. I've been very safe, very conservative with investments. I don't blow money. I don't have a ton of houses. I know things can go away. I've already had that experience.
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The money can be a hindrance to someone like me because the danger is that you start thinking, 'Is that a $20 million take?' That kind of thing, and being self-critical.
