I would give all the wealth of the world, and all the deeds of all the heroes, for one true vision.
Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
Just be true to yourself, and listen as much as one is able to to other people whose opinions you respect and look up to but in the end it has to come from you. You can’t really worry too much by looking to the left and the right about what the competition is doing or what other people in your field are doing. It has to be a true vision.
I can teach anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is that I can't find anybody who can tell me what they want.
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
You're in the midst of a war: a battle between the limits of a crowd seeking the surrender of your dreams, and the power of your true vision to create and contribute. It is a fight between those who will tell you what you cannot do, and that part of you that knows...and has always known...that we are more than our environment; and that a dream, backed by an unrelenting will to attain it, is truly a reality with an imminent arrival.
As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.
