Life is a series of recoveries.

Life is a series of recoveries.

If you're normal, if you're healthy, you look at your children and you see your image, and you want the best for them. And you applaud when they take their first steps. And you are their biggest fan when they first sing in church. And, you know, that's a normal healthy person, father, parent, I believe. Well, multiply that by infinity and that's how God sees you. So I say that's pretty "nice."

When you're younger, you think of your age in fractions. 4 1/2, 5 1/2. You don't hear 36 1/2. You become 2, you turn 40, you reach 50, you make it to 60. By now you're going so fast you hit 70!

The self-righteous have their fig leaves so tightly bound that they have forgotten the seeping wounds beneath the foliage.

I do one sit up a day. I get up in the morning, that's the first half. I lay down at night, that's the second half.

We don't help people by showing them our trophies. We help them by showing them our scars.
