"the brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don't want it badly enough. They're there to stop the other people." (障礙/困難的存在是有原因的。它不是為了要阻礙我們達成我們的目標,而是為了讓我們知道我們到底有多渴望達成我們的目標。因為障礙/困難是為了阻擋那些其實並不是如此熱切想要達成目標的人,他的存在是為了阻擋那些人)

"Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you. When you are pissed off somebody or you are angry at them, you just haven't given them enough time. Give them just a little more time and they will almost always impress you" (當你願意給別人多點時間的話通常他們會讓你讚賞。我們會生別人氣往往是因為我們沒能給人足夠的時間證明自己,只要我們願意多給別人一點時間,我們通常會發現別人會有令人激賞的表現)

"It's not about how you achieve your dreams, it's about how you live your life. If you live your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you" (人生重要的不是你如何完成你的夢想,而是你如何讓自己無悔的過一生。如果你認認真真的生活,人生自會為你找到答案,而夢想自然會實現)
