It's flattering to people who stop you and say that you've helped them and all. But, again, you know, you've got to stay humble because as quick as you came up, you can come down.

When you face adversity, you need to remind yourself that whatever is trying to defeat you could very well be what God will use to promote you.

I think, for years, people have been pushed down by religion, and I don't say that disrespectfully, but they've been shown a God that you can't measure up to.

I like to think my dad was easygoing and kind, and I think some of those things have been passed down. I am like him in a sense of being positive and hopeful. He was compassionate, and I've got a lot of that in me as well.

You are a person of destiny. You are not here by accident. There is no obstacle too big, no dream you can't accomplish.

Take the limits off of yourself. You will never rise higher than your thinking. Create a great vision for your life.

It's always darkest before the dawn. The bigger your challenge, the closer you are to your victory.
