For it is in giving that we receive.

Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received - only what you have given: a full heart, enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage.

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Do all you can to preach the gospel and if necessary use words!

God requires that we assist the animals, when they need our help. Each being (human or creature) has the same right of protection.

All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.

The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today.

Ask the beasts and they will teach you the beauty of this earth.

All things of creation are children of the Father and thus brothers of man. ... God wants us to help animals, if they need help. Every creature in distress has the same right to be protected.

What is it that stands higher than words? Action. What is it that stands higher than action? Silence.

I wonder if killing yourself is the only thing you can control in your entire life, and that's why it's a sin. Because you're beating God at his own game.

I've always thought that if I bury my feelings now, I can dig them up later when I have time to deal with them.

For the happiest life, days should be rigorously planned, nights left open to chance.

That's the difference between golf and many other sports. You go to some other sporting events, they just leave you or give you the cold shoulder and move on.

There are things that are not sayable. That’s why we have art.

Vehement writing, even if it is charged with truth, is no answer to violent action.

You live in the present and you eliminate things that don't matter. You don't carry the burden of the past.
