I am passionate. I am political about my country, about what it is, how strong it is, how strong it remains.

Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.

The measure of our success will be the condition on which we leave the world for the next generation.

God, I just love baseball.

Problems can become opportunities when the right people come together.

Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.

Never revisit the past, that's dangerous. You know, move on.

The technology available for film-making now is incredible, but I am a big believer that it's all in the story.

Not taking a risk is a risk. That's how I see it.

Men trust God by risking rejection. Women trust God by waiting.

I was too proud to show him how hurt I was.

I pick and choose my battles, but I overthink everything because I have to think about everything.

I was out training one black night when I heard a noise. I turned around and saw a leopard. I threw some stones at him and he went away, so I went on my way.

His cloak was his crowning glory; sable, thick and black and soft as sin.

You have to be with the right person. Its so much more important to meet the right person, whether youre married or not, than it is to get married and get a divorce.

A sound marriage is not based on complete frankness; it is based on a sensible reticence.
