I've always had a reputation as a buffoon.

I'm Southern Baptist, not a meteorologist.

Librarians have always been among the most thoughtful and helpful people. They are teachers without a classroom.

It's simply a tragedy that anyone today goes blind from glaucoma, when it's so unnecessary.

The only way to predict if there's a cloud on your horizon due to glaucoma is to get tested. No matter what the diagnosis, the forecast is for clear vision in the years ahead.

The TV weatherman has always been one of the best, most secure jobs. They change anchors, they change the set, producers come and go. But the weather person hangs on forever!

Positive feelings come from being honest about yourself and accepting your personality, and physical characteristics, warts and all; and, from belonging to a family that accepts you without question.

Take a microphone out of my hands, and I'm just plain folks.

Nobody actually talks to anybody anymore. People in cubicles next to each other, they e-mail each other.

As an only child, I never felt insecure and always had total love.

When I can, I do 25 minutes of calisthenics every day.

If the only hammer you are given is the Internet, it's not surprising that every possible social and political problem is presented as an online nail.

Prosperity is not just scale adversity is the only balance to weigh friends.

Whoever we understand, we love.

Charity means love towards the neighbor and compassion, for anyone who loves his neighbor as himself also has as much compassion for him in his suffering as he does for himself in his own.

I would prefer as friend a good man ignorant than one more clever who is evil too.

The moment an ill can be patiently handled, it is disarmed of its poison, though not of its pain.

I privately say to you, old friend... please accept from me this unpretentious bouquet of early-blooming parentheses: (((()))).

You're probably on the right track if you feel like a sidewalk worm during a rainstorm.

I'm never standing still and that makes my life pretty exciting.

Divide the fire, and you will the sooner put it out.
