My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive

You don't need another person, place or thing to make you whole. God already did that. Your job is to know it.

The future is plump with promise.

My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

Whatever you want to do, if you want to be great at it, you have to love it and be able to make sacrifices for it.

All great achievements require time.

I have heard it said that winter, too, will pass, that spring is a sign that summer is due at last. See, all we have to do is hang on.
