A good beginning makes a good end.

You can't fight the desert... you have to ride with it.

When I die, remember that what you knew of me is with you always. What is buried is only the shell of what was. Do not regret the shell, but remember the man. Remember the father.

There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.

Knowledge is like money: To be of value it must circulate, and in circulating it can increase in quantity and, hopefully, in value.

Victory is won not in miles but in inches. Win a little now, hold your ground, and later, win a little more.

There are good men everywhere. I only wish they had louder voices.

The trail is the thing, not the end of the trail. Travel too fast, and you miss all you are traveling for.

Only one who has learned much can fully appreciate his ignorance.

Long ago I learned nothing gets done by just wishing it. You have to do it.

There is nothing more dangerous than a woman with a shotgun. Because you don't know when it's going to go off...and neither does she.

My grandmother's last act on earth was a call for forgiveness, love, and tolerance.

I wanna be so consumed with the love of Christ that it flows into every aspect of my life.

I sort of enjoy the fact that I'm misunderstood most of the time. That's fine.

Since we do operate in a binary world, if there's something that cannot be this or that, it drives us crazy.

We are in a race between knowledge and catastrophe. If we keep track of what is important, never lower our standards or forget why we are here, we have the ability to determine the fate of the world.

There are really three parts to the creative process. First there is inspiration, then there is the execution, and finally there is the release.

If there's no door, then I'll make one!

When women have reclaimed their voices and men reclaimed their hearts, we won't be invading countries, we won't be feeling that we have the right to launch preemptive wars.

I don't think God cares if you are rich or poor. God loves you anyway. But if you want to be rich, then choose your church & preacher carefully.

If you lend someone 20 dollars and never see that person again, it's probably worth it.
