We tend to take on the coloration of the setting in which we find ourselves.

Good people will do good things, lots of them, because they are good people. They will do bad things because they are human.

I said in an interview at the time that God's job is not to make sick people healthy. That's the doctors' job. God's job is to make sick people brave.

Fun can be the dessert of our lives but never its main course.

I think of life as a good book. The further you get into it, the more it begins to make sense.

The happiest people I know are people who don't even think about being happy. They just think about being good neighbors, good people. And then happiness sort of sneaks in the back window while they are busy doing good.

Sometimes we are simply "blown away" and in awe by finding ourselves in the presence of God. Other times, however, even when we are participating in acts of kindness-complimenting others, writing a check to charity, donating time to a good cause-we are oblivious to the miracle of what is happening at that moment.
