I think we have gone through a period when too many children and people have been given to understand 'I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!' or 'I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!' 'I am homeless, the Government must house me!' and so they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people and people look to themselves first.

I think we all have a little bit of that fear of failure, and that's what drives us to succeed.

We cannot change, we cannot move away from what we are, until we thoroughly accept what we are.

Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.
