I give thanks to my Creator for this wonderful life where each of us has the opportunity to learn lessons we could not fully comprehend by any other means.

Integrity means always doing what is right and good, regardless of the immediate consequences.

Our friends should be companions who inspire us, who help us rise to our best.

No matter our age, our circumstances, or abilities... Each one of us can create something remarkable with our lives.

As we come unto Christ and journey to higher ground, we will desire to spend more time in His temples, because the temples represent higher ground, sacred ground.

The way we react to adversity can be a major factor in how happy and successful we can be in life.

Come what may and love it.

Kindness is the essence of greatness.

As we look for humor, seek for the eternal perspective, understnd the principle of compensation, and draw near to our Heavenly Father, we can endure heardship and trial.

In spite of discouragement and adversity, those who are happiest seem to have a way of learning from difficult times, becoming stronger, wiser and happier as a result.

Honesty is of God and dishonesty of the devil; the devil was a liar from the beginning.

Maybe the secret to happiness is simplicity.

I lost some of my friends because I got so famous, people who just assumed that I would be different now. I felt like everyone hated me. That is the most unhappy time of my life.

A child understands fear, and the hurt and hate it brings.

Frankly I've never really subscribed to these adjectives tagging me as an 'icon', 'superstar', etc. I've always thought of myself as an actor doing his job to the best of his ability.

Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind.

My pleasures disappeared with my vices.

We're now on the precipice of having a potentially much better economy, but the last thing we need to do is to go back to the policies that failed us in the first place.

It doesn't matter how fast or how far you're going. If you're putting on your shoes and going out for a run, you are a runner, you are in that club.

And life goes on, which seems kind of strange and cruel when you're watching someone die.

I never wanted to be called an artist. I wanted to be called a photographer.
