No matter how they say it to you...

"Don't get typecast in your own life," he says. "You cannot assume that somebody can define you. You cannot assume that the other person is right. No matter how they say it to you, no matter with how much force they say, 'Oh my god, you'll never make it; oh my god, you're not bright; you could never do this' - that's one person. I can't tell you how many people told me I would never be an actor."
- Henry Winkler, 'The Fonz'
