I love imperfections.

Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today.

You have to believe in your process. You have to believe in the things that you are doing to help the team win. I think you have to take the good with the bad.

When you put on a uniform, there are certain inhibitions that you accept.

Every day is a gift from God, no matter how old we are.

Accept the terrible responsibility of life with eyes wide open.

There’s always going to be people who don’t understand or accept the united science, and I will just ignore them, as I’m only acting and communicating on the science.

I don’t want flowers or candy or anything like that. I just want somebody to say, ‚Wow, you’ve done a great job.‘

We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is, knowing how to tip ourselves over and let the beautiful stuff out.

Martyrs do not underrate the body, they allow it to be elevated on the cross. In this they are at one with their antagonists.

I believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.

I believe that one person can make a difference.

Reject your sense of injury and the injury itself disappears.

Don’t look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you’ll know you’re dead.

People always tell you, ‚Be humble. Be humble.‘ When was the last time someone told you to be amazing? Be great! Be great! Be awesome! Be awesome!

Your joy comes from how you think, the choices that we make in life.

Never, and I mean never, allow anyone else’s ideas of who you can or can’t become sully your dream or pollute your imagination. This is your territory, and a ‚Keep Out‘ sign is a great thing to erect at all entrances to your imagination.

How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.

Everyone got kind of crazy with me mentioning I was in love with a woman.

First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.

You’ve got to have faith in what you’re doing and not take no for an answer.

It is impossible for you to be angry and laugh at the same time. Anger and laughter are mutually exclusive and you have the power to choose either.

Always say ‚yes‘ to the present moment… Surrender to what is. Say ‚yes‘ to life – and see how life starts suddenly to start working for you rather than against you.

Instead, I have an abundance mentality: When people are genuinely happy at the successes of others, the pie gets larger.

Overall there’s going to be things I’m not great at.

We can take a ‚It was hard to get there.‘ But we ain’t taking no loss. We’re going to win.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.

If you’re in a workplace you don’t like right now, be encouraged because God will use it for your good. Think about it this way: He wants you to be a light in the darkness – and He’s putting His confidence in you!

A fit body gives you confidence. And there’s nothing more impressive than a great attitude, which you can wear on your sleeve. But you’ll have to remember the difference between being rude and being confident.

An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere, while a pessimist sees only the red stoplight… the truly wise person is colorblind.

Blessed is he that expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.

Reality has a way of intruding. Reality eventually intrudes on everything.

Death is acceptable only if it represents the physically necessary passage toward a union, the condition of a metamorphosis.

Hope is favorable and confident expectation; it’s an expectant attitude that something good is going to happen and things will work out, no matter what situation we’re facing.

Our life is what our thoughts make it.

You just do what you can and you have as much fun as possible.

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.

Never succumb to the temptation of bitterness.

I thought I would try to be gay for a while, but I’m just more sexually attracted to women. But I’m really glad that I found a few gay friends, because it totally saved me from becoming a monk or something.

Hate has no place in the house of God.

If you can dream it, you can do it.

No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.

My body is like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don’t think about it, I just have it.

It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is.

He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.

When you love and accept yourself, when you know who really cares about you, and when you learn from your mistakes, then you stop caring about what people who don’t know you think.

America is known as a country that welcomes people to its shores. All kinds of people. The image of the Statue of Liberty with Emma Lazarus‘ famous poem. She lifts her lamp and welcomes people to the golden shore, where they will not experience prejudice because of the color of their skin, the religious faith that they follow.

You may make some mistakes – but that doesn’t make you a sinner. You’ve got the very nature of God on the inside of you.

Lord Jesus, we come just as we are; this is how we came at first, and this is how we come still, with all our failures, with all our transgressions, with all and everything that is what it ought not to be, we come to Thee.

Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.

In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider.

You cannot be lonely if you like the person you’re alone with.

I’m confident with my ability.

I think a big test we all face in life on a regular basis is that discouragement test. Life’s not always fair, but I believe if you keep doing the right thing, God will get you to where you are.

Commodities such as gold and silver have a world market that transcends national borders, politics, religions, and race. A person may not like someone else’s religion, but he’ll accept his gold.

It doesn’t matter who likes you or doesn’t like you, all that matters is that God likes you. He accepts you, he approves of you.

What did I owe the rest of the world? Nothing.

When we’re looking for compassion, we need someone who is deeply rooted, is able to bend and, most of all, embraces us for our strengths and struggles.

Remember, you can always stoop and pick up nothing.

Once you feel loved by the universe, you’re already accepted, and you’re not really concerned about offending people.

These are not dark days: these are great days – the greatest days our country has ever lived.
