Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own.

Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do.

Believe in miracles but don't depend on them. When you hear kind word spoken about a friend, tell him so. Spoil your spouse, not your children. Never make fun of someone who speaks broken English. It means they know another language. To help your children turn out well, spend twice as much time with them and half as much money.

If you were to sell your character, would you get full retail or would it go for a bargain-basement price?

Every so often, let your spirit of adventure triumph over your good sense.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.

Take care of your reputation. It's your most valuable asset.
