It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength.

Life offers us tickets to places which we have not knowingly asked for.

Every person needs to take one day away. A day in which one consciously separates the past from the future. Jobs, family, employers, and friends can exist one day without any one of us, and if our egos permit us to confess, they could exist eternally in our absence. Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us.

There is a very fine line between loving life and being greedy for it.

The first thing I do in the morning when I awaken is say, 'Thank you, Lord!' I'm grateful to be alive, and I'm going to try to tell the truth as well as I know and tell it as eloquently as I can so that people can hear it.

No not me go find someone else to bring down

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
