People always say that you can’t please everybody. I think that’s a cop-out. Why not attempt it? ‘Cause think of all the people you will please if you try.

The PC is successful because we’re all benefiting from the competition with each other. If Twitter comes along, our games benefit. If Nvidia makes better graphics technology, all the games are going to shine. If we come out with a better game, people are going to buy more PCs.

Never to have occasion to take a position, to make up one’s mind, or to define oneself – there is no wish I make more often.

Read, listen to and associate with positive-minded people.

Don’t let your ego get too close to your position, so that if your position gets shot down, your ego doesn’t go with it.

The only position that leaves me with no cognitive dissonance is atheism. It is not a creed. Death is certain, replacing both the siren-song of Paradise and the dread of Hell.

There is nothing more; but I want nothing more

The object of defense is preservation; and since it is easier to hold ground than to take it, defense is easier than attack. But defense has a passive purpose: preservation; and attack a positive one: conquest…. If defense is the stronger form of war, yet has a negative object, it follows that it should be used only so long as weakness compels, and be abandoned as soon as we are strong enough to pursue a positive object.

The learner always begins by finding fault, but the scholar sees the positive merit in everything.

Choose the positive. You have choice, you are master of your attitude, choose the positive, the constructive

People look up to me as somebody who is able to switch the image of our country from negative to positive.

Obsession is a negative word, I do not think that obsession can bring positive things. Not only in tennis but, I mean in any situation of life

Think positively about yourself…. ask God who made you to keep on remaking you.

Think health, eat sparingly, exercise regularly, walk a lot, and think positively about yourself.

Living life like it’s golden, but it ain’t always sunny.
