Don't talk yourself into not being you.

I often try to tell kids to think about all the people who love you, don't cry over the one person who doesn't.

Why do I have to feed the kids? They just ate twelve hours ago!

I use the exercise room early, because I don't want to get on the treadmill and everyone's going 'Oh, Bill Cosby,' and then they come around to see how fast I'm walking, and it becomes very competitive.

Nothing separates the generations more than music. By the time a child is eight or nine, he has developed a passion for his own music that is even stronger than his passions for procrastination and weird clothes.

When we look at the settling of America we see a Bible in hand and God. Every Thanksgiving has God and the peacefulness of gratitude. It was important when the Twin Towers were hit and the sorrow with them that the first thing Congress did was sing "God Bless America."

If you want to be seen, stand up. If you want to be heard, speak up. If you want to be appreciated, shut up.
