Above all else, I had learned the one thing every person has to learn to make it through life: the only person you can truly count on is yourself.

If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

You know it's love when all you want is that person to be happy, even if you're not part of their happiness.

The important thing is not the size of your faith - it is the One behind your faith - God Himself.

Faith is not something you have to get. It's something that you, as a bornagain child of God, already have. Act on it by releasing it to God. That's when your healing starts!

Remember, only what you give can God multiply back. If you give nothing, and even if God were to multiply it, it would still be nothing!

Something GOOD is going to happen to you today.

God wants you well. God wants you prosperous. God wants you a whole person.

Nothing in the world is as certain as death.

The classroom should be an entrance into the world, not an escape from it.

The soul takes flight to the world that is invisible but there arriving she is sure of bliss and forever dwells in paradise.

When I'm not working, I like to be comfortable. I do like to dress smart, but comfort is important.

My first objective is to invest, and if I have anything spare, then I spend.

Don't worry... it's not loaded...
