I am well again, I came to life in the cool winds and crystal waters of the mountains.

The power of imagination makes us infinite.

As long as I live, I'll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing.

Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt.

The grand show is eternal It is always sunrise somewhere

I’d rather be in the mountains thinking of God, than in church thinking about the mountains.

Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity.

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.

In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.

God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools.

Wilderness is a necessity... there must be places for human beings to satisfy their souls.

In order to know who you are you need to know God is.

Reading is the beginning of knowledge acquisition.

It's okay to be hurt because what is pleasure without some pain.

We do not choose our fate, we can only choose if we accept it. Fate will take us where it will, whether we will it or not.” (Sister Mira)

The Vietnam War was in full swing, the Air Force wanted me and I wanted out of Flint, so three years in the USA and that fourth one spent here in Vietnam really flipped my life around.

The Bible is big in the religion, treating people as you want to be treated.

I don't go to the gym because I don't have time, but I do pilates workout DVDs for 20 minutes or more every day at home.

My so-called career is a haphazard thing.

I really want to focus on economic growth and growing the economy.

When I talk about having good hearing, I don't mean just listening, but listening to yourself. When I talk about good eyesight, I don't mean just looking, but looking at yourself.
