It is more agreeable to have the power to give than to receive.

First, how do we give everyone a fair shot at opportunity and security in this new economy? Second, how do we make technology work for us, and not against us – especially when it comes to solving urgent challenges like climate change? Third, how do we keep America safe and lead the world without becoming its policeman?

The kindness that’s been shown to me, by doctors as well as my family and my friends, it’s really saved my life.

I always ask God to work through me and let me be a light of some kind and help in this world, so I always pray for that, and I always want to do good.

Never elated when someone’s oppressed, never dejected when another one’s blessed.

You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation for favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

There is no security on this earth; there is only opportunity.

He that’s secure is not safe.

First, I want to pay tribute to Diana myself. She was an exceptional and gifted human being. In good times and bad, she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh, nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness. I admired and respected her – for her energy and commitment to others, and especially for her devotion to her two boys.

I’ve been a huge fan of Chris Martin forever; it’d be awesome to work with him. He’s really kind, and he’s been really encouraging when we’ve met.

The blessed of us must save the less of us. I’m blessed, and yeah, I’m planning to go to Heaven.

The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.

People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
