If I could create a world where people lived forever, or at the very least a few billion years, I would do so.

I think that most successful artists - not always, but a lot of them, in any field - have business savvy as well and have some sense of marketing acumen.

I remember the revelation it was to me when I realized I'd rather be smart in the way Elvis Presley was than in the way, say, Ludwig Wittgenstein was.

Farrah Gray

We want to avoid pain and have pleasure, so if our early attempts to achieve our dreams fail, we want to avoid the pain of future failure and rejection, so we stop trying and write it off with a broadbrush, "I'm just not driven enough, not well educated enough, not attractive enough, not smart enough."

Tony Robbins
