Your problems are not there to defeat you, they are there to increase you.

When you have big dreams, you’re going to have big challenges. If you were an average person you would have average problems.

Truth is, no two people are completely compatible. We have to learn to become one. That means we may have to make sacrifices; we may have to overlook some things. We must be willing to compromise for the good of the relationship.

Life's a fight. It's a good fight of faith.

I want to be blessed so I can build orphanages. Blessed so I can build hospitals and do other things with our finances.

When thoughts tell you it’s too late, dismiss them. You haven’t dreamed your best dream. You haven’t run your best race.

It seems like when I was growing up there was more compromise, wanting to work with each other, and I think all of them - all of the lawmakers - have hearts to do what's right, and they all are passionate about it.
