What I find powerful is a person with the confidence to be her own self.

I couldn't kill myself. I would be afraid the minute I did it; something really good would happen and I'd miss it.

I am grateful for the blessings of wealth, but it hasn't changed who I am. My feet are still on the ground. I'm just wearing better shoes.

The essential question is not, "How busy are you?" but "What are you busy at?"

You really haven't changed, you've just become more of yourself. That is really what were all trying to do: become more of ourselves.

If you're hurting, you need to help somebody else ease their hurt. If you're in pain, help somebody else's pain.

Your gut is your inner compass.
