I like to see myself as a bridge builder, that is me building bridges between people, between races, between cultures, between politics, trying to find common ground.

Don't allow your past or present condition to control you. It's just a process that you're going through to get you to the next level.

Even when things are getting worse instead of better - I believe God!

I think, when we start dealing with heaven or hell issues, what we really need to gravitate toward is that man is an eternal spirit. And if you believe that he is an eternal spirit then all it does, it abandons the body.

We have gotten so nuanced into social issues that we fail to understand that China is buying up America, we have fallen into debt in such a pervasive way that social security is compromised, we are living longer than we lived before and in order to secure the kind of healthcare that we need without the deficits on our budget, we need really strong leadership that is focused only on the plethora of issues and not just the traditional concerns that have driven us to the ballot box.

It is possible for you to get a grip on the thing that used to have a grip on you. And instead of it controlling you- you are now controlling it.

Sometimes we're so busy trying to get things and at the end of the day, all we need is love.
