I'm really a peaceful sort of coward.

You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.

Every day is a gift from God. Learn to focus on the Giver and enjoy the gift!

Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult. You may be given a cactus, but you don't have to sit on it.

Encourage everyone you meet with a smile or compliment. Make them feel better when you leave their presence and they will always be glad to see you coming.

It is so easy to be average. It takes a little something to be special. Why be around average?

We suffer much agony because we try to get from people what only God can give us, which is a sense of worth and value. Look to God for what you need, not to people.

If you can raise the level of effort and performance in those around you, you are officially a leader.

Love can melt the hardest heart, heal the wounds of the broken heart and quiet the fears of the anxious heart.

I make mistakes every day. I'm not perfect in my behavior, but I want to be and that's what God is after, a heart that wants to be.

Don't be afraid to step out, have dreams, have visions, have hopes and always, always, always believe in miracles.

It’s not great when your husband thinks the only guy who can talk to you, is some other guy.

We will persevere, come life or death.

First of all, Mets fans despise me.

Obama had a mandate for change and Trump clearly does not.

He who speaks a bit of a foreign language has more delight in it than he who speaks it well; pleasure goes along with superficial knowledge.

If the Cincinnati Reds were really the first major league baseball team, who did they play?

Even respectable characters speak of a monarchical form of government without horror.

It's not for me to say from the outside what the Palestinian people should have. That would be very arrogant.

I don't think [Donald] Trump was playing rope-a-dope. He probably said, "Look, I've done these. How many debates did we do in the primaries? I know what's happening."

The fact that the market is not doing what we wish it would do is no reason to automatically assume that the government would do better.
