My friends, no matter how rough the road may be, we can and we will, never, never surrender to what is right.

Young men and women, your education is ever important – to us, to you, and to God.

If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

You are victors, not victims!

Why should I be studying for a future that soon may not exist?

I made a commitment to completely cut out drinking and anything that might hamper me from getting my mind and body together. And the floodgates of goodness have opened upon me – spiritually and financially.

I think life on Earth must be about more than just solving problems… It’s got to be something inspiring, even if it is vicarious.

Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions – Why am I doing it, What the results might be and Will I be successful. Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead.

Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don’t complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don’t bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live!

Faith is the complete reliance on the power and goodness of Spirit and the firm belief that you are always connected to this goodness. Always affirm your faith and not your doubt.

I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back.

It was like I was in a tunnel. Not only the tunnel under the hotel but the whole circuit was a tunnel. I was just going and going, more and more and more and more. I was way over the limit but still able to find even more.

I always was a rich person because money’s not related to happiness.

Man’s real life is happy, chiefly because he is ever expecting that it soon will be so.

A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.

The only service a friend can really render is to keep up your courage by holding up to you a mirror in which you can see a noble image of yourself.

I prefer to praise people and the world rather than criticize them and it.

I’m afraid to fail again.

I’ve got a woman’s ability to stick to a job and get on with it when everyone else walks off and leaves it.

The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.

If you even dream of beating me you’d better wake up and apologize.

This life is worth living, we can say, since it is what we make it.

He that lives upon hope will die fasting.

People don’t want drama 365 days a year. I’m a sense of relief; it’s my job to take your mind off what’s bad for that brief second you’re in the room with me, regardless of shape, race, colour or anything. It brings people together, and it makes me feel good about what I’m doing.

Even as you make progress, you need the discipline to keep from backtracking and sabotaging the success as it’s happening.

Act enthusiastic and you will be enthusiastic.

Since day one, since the first time I touched the pen, I wanted to be the best at what I do.

If you’re treated a certain way you become a certain kind of person. If certain things are described to you as being real they’re real for you whether they’re real or not.

Money won’t create success, the freedom to make it will.

I always knew that St. Jude was an amazing organization but meeting the kids and seeing how the hospital works first hand was truly beautiful. It doesn’t feel like a regular hospital all dreary and sad. It’s a colorful, beautiful, comfortable, fun place to live and the energy is wonderful.

There are good and bad times, but our mood changes more often than our fortune.

Human development thus far has been fueled and guided by the feeling that things could be, and are probably going to be, better.

If you continue to keep low performers on your team, that are actually dragging the team down; you’re failing the whole team, and eventually, the whole team is going to fail.
