It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.

Everyone is looking for themselves, even if they don't know what they're looking for.

I'm a survivor, I'm not gonna give up, I'm not gonna stop, I'm gonna work harder.

Cultivate 12 people who love you， because they are worth more than 12 million people who like you.

Celebrate your successes. Find some humor in your failures. Don't take yourself so seriously. Loosen up, and everyone around you will loosen up. Have fun. Show enthusiasm. Always.
