Motivational Quote by Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“You are unique. You have different talents and abilities. You don’t have to always follow in the footsteps of others. And most important, you should always remind yourself that you don't have to do what everyone else is doing and have a responsibility to develop the talents you have been given.”

“You are being prepared for a glory not yet revealed.”

“Life is a canvas—layered with passion, strengthened by quiet courage, glazed with hope, and painted in dreams that never fade.”

“I admire those who choose to bless others, even while walking through storms of their own.”

“Rejoice in this moment, for it shimmers with enduring grace.”

“Learn to sit back and observe; not everything requires a response. Sometimes the most powerful response is no response at all—just awareness.”

“Since that day, night had been his only companion. It stayed with him—bringing its cold, its silence, its shadows and memories.”

“Je peinlicher es dir ist, was du vor 10 Jahren gemacht hast, umso größer war wahrscheinlich der Sprung, den du nach vorne gemacht hast.”

“A lesson any writer can use. Don’t be afraid. That simple; don’t let them scare you. There’s nothing they can do to you. If they kick you out of films, do TV. If they kick you out of TV, write novels. If they won’t buy your novels, sell short stories. Can’t do that, then take a job as a bricklayer. A writer always writes. That’s what he’s for. And if they won’t let you write one kind of thing, if they chop you off at the pockets in the market place, then go to another market place. And if they close of all the bazaars, then by God go and work with your hands till you can write, because the talent is always there. But the first time you say, “Oh, Christ, they’ll kill me!” then you’re done. Because the chief commodity a writer has to sell is his courage. And if he has none, he is more than a coward. He is a sellout and a fink and a heretic, because writing is a holy chore.”

“I can't believe that God put us on this earth to be ordinary.”
