I am not competing with anyone other than myself. I want to be excellent at whatever I do.

The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.

Ain't nothin' to it, but to do it.

When the human race neglects its weaker members, when the family neglects its weakest one - it's the first blow in a suicidal movement.

Success is loving life and daring to live it.

I wish that we could look into each other's faces, in each other's eyes, and see our own selves. I hope that the children have not been so scarred by their upbringing that they only think fear when they see someone else who looks separate from them.

I have respect for the past, but I'm a person of the moment.
