All quotes

And when you fall throughout life—and maybe even tonight after a few too many glasses of champagne—fall forward.

Every failed experiment is one step closer to success.

I walked out of there to prepare for the next audition, and the next audition, and the next one.

I want to fall… forward. At least I figure that way I’ll see what I’m about to hit.

If I’m going to fall, I don’t want to fall back on anything, except my faith.

I’ve found that nothing in life is worthwhile unless you take risks.

Never be discouraged. Never hold back. Give everything you’ve got.

The point is, every graduate here today has the training and the talent to succeed. But do you have guts to fail?

You hang around a barbershop long enough—sooner or later you will get a haircut.

You will fail at some point in your life. Accept it. You will lose. You will embarrass yourself. You will suck at something. There is no doubt about it.

It’s also about knowing what you know and what you don’t know. It’s about being open to people and ideas.

So I ask you today: How many ghosts are going to be around your bed when your time comes?

So get out there. Give it everything you’ve got—whether it’s your time, your talent, your prayers, or your treasure.

Your life will never be a straight path.

You’ll never see a U-haul behind a hearse.

To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.

To not only take risks, but to be open to life. To accept new views and to be open to new opinions.
