Never judge an eagle by the opinion of turkeys.

Pilots, not eagles, attend flight school.

Calm skies don't make skillful eagles.

Passion takes you to the mountain foot; talent takes you to the mountaintop; brilliance takes you to the sky; genius takes you to the stars.

The riper a tree's fruit, the more stones people cast at it.

Become so good they can’t ignore you, and you are on the path to success. Become so good they can’t stand you, and you are on the path to greatness.
