When you make loving others the story of your life, there's never a final chapter, because the legacy continues. You lend your light to one person, and he or she shines it on another and another and another.

Step through new doors. The majority of the time there's something fantastic on the other side.

Do what you want to do, when you want to do it ... and not a moment sooner.

The biggest mistake in helping undeserved kids is not raising the bar high enough. Children will believe if you believe in them.

I look at problems as opportunities and use every person, every incident, and every encounter as an opportunity to show a more loving part of myself.

When I learn something, when I know something, when I find something. I always want to share it. Because life is better when you share it.

This past Thanksgiving, my father was at the farm, and I had all 11 dogs in the house with a father who never allowed dogs in the house. And he got up to leave the table and came back and Solomon was in his chair. And he says, "This dog is in my chair." And I said, "It's the other way around, you're sitting in his chair."
