I don't have a feeling of inferiority. Never had. I'm as good as anybody, but no better.

People have said to me, 'It must be nice to prove so many people wrong,' but I've never really cared about proving anything to anybody else.

Always know your merit and how special you are, and don't let someone else's qualifications make you feel small. If you stick to this, you will always deserve their respect.

Live your life to its fullest potential and don't really care too much about what other people think of you.
