Charles Dickens Quotes, Opportunity Quotes, Energy Quotes

What the deuce!....But show me a good opportunity, show me something really worth being energetic about, and I'll show you energy.

There is a voice inside of my head that is trying to convince me that I'm not good enough and that I don't deserve to be here in Hollywood. So courage is required.
