Pope FrancisIf you want to shrink something, you must first allow it to expand. If you want to get rid of something, you must first allow it to flourish.

Octavia SpencerWe have received too much from God to allow ourselves opportunities for unbelief. We have received too many gifts and privileges to allow a grumbling, murmuring heart to disqualify us of our destiny. In contrast, the thankful heart sees the best part of every situation.

Nina GarciaWhat I point out to you is only that you shouldn't allow yourselves to be confused by others. Act when you need to, without further hesitation or doubt.

Typically, socially skilled people are exceptional at recognizing underlying agendas, anticipating the probable effects and likely unintended consequences of a chosen course of action. These specific capabilities determine one's "people smarts."

Alexis ArguelloMost people no longer believe that buying sneakers made in Asian sweatshops is a kindness to those child laborers. Farming is similar. In every country on earth, the most human scenario for farmers is likely to be feeding those who live nearby-if international markets would allow them to do it.

Russell LatapyMost people consider themselves above the gritty and relentless details of life that allow the creation of great wealth. They leave it to the experts.
