Ella Fitzgerald Quotes

Remember that it is not where you come from, or not even where you are; it is where you are going that matters most.

I look to the future because that's where I'm going to spend the rest of my life.

It doesn't matter where you are coming from. All that matters is where you are going.

I have goals, so you're always trying to see if you're on the right path to get where you're trying to go.

Life is a series of collisions with the future; it is not the sum of what we have been, but what we yearn to be.

People ask how far I've gone in life. About 20 miles.

My life is like a speeding bullet that just hasn't hit the target yet.

There are those who travel and those who are going somewhere. They are different and yet they are the same. The success has this over his rivals: He knows where he is going.

Your goals are the road maps that guide you and show you what is possible for your life.

You don’t get to pick where you’re from, but you always have control of where you’re going.

Where you come from does matter -- but not nearly as much as where you are headed.

I always felt like I was on the move, that I was going towards something.

I can't say that I've fully achieved my dream yet. I'm just starting to evolve.

The world turns aside to let any man pass who knows whither he is going.

Goals allow you to control the direction of change in your favor.

I hope our hopes and aspirations are bigger than setting records.

Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find the right road.

This journey has always been about reaching your own other shore no matter what it is, and that dream continues.

I traced the path I walk today and my goals are many. I think that I'm achieving my goals.

I have a whole, you know, pocket full of dreams I want to achieve. I don't know in which order they're going to fall.

There is no top. There are always further heights to reach.

I consider a goal as a journey rather than a destination. And each year I set a new goal.

Without some goals and some efforts to reach it, no man can live.

All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.
