I don't like to beat people down. They need to be lifted up.

Life's too short to spend it trying to keep others happy. You can't please everyone. To fulfill your destiny, stay true to your heart.

Don't just go through it; grow through it.

I don't mind saying, you know, that I don't take a salary from the church, and God has blessed me with more money than I could imagine from my books.

You've got to send your words out in the direction you want your life to go.

Shake off the self-pity, shake off the defeat and get ready for God to do something new. He is going to pay you back for every injustice.

I think God gives every one of us our own will, and unfortunately, some people choose to do evil things with it.
