I'm not good at figuring out what quotes mean. And I need to write an essay for one quote. Okay, here are the quotes:

1. "People only see what they are prepared to see."

2. "What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say."

3. "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."

I just need to know what the quotes mean. If you can help, I appreciate it a lot. Thank you.
