I've found that contemporary psychology enrages me with its simplistic ideas of human life, and also its emptiness.

All we can do when we think of kids today is think of more hours of school, earlier age at the computer, and curfews. Who would want to grow up in that world?

Anytime you’re gonna grow, you’re gonna lose something. You’re losing what you’re hanging onto to keep safe. You’re losing habits that you’re comfortable with, you’re losing familiarity.

It is better to have a lion at the head of an army of sheep, than a sheep at the head of an army of lions.

Miracles do occur, and it's never too late to turn your life around and reach for something better.

I was feeling guilty in the beginning; it was frustrating to be successful when a lot of my friends weren't. Also, I was constantly being reminded of that by people in my family making jokes.

Only in Jesus are we able to pray, and with Him we also know that we shall be heard.

Fate always wins, for our own heart within us Imperiously furthers its designs.

Toil of science swells the wealth of art.

I'm already in the (record) books three or four times.

Attitude is everything. It motivates action, which increases productivity and improves morale, which perpetuates a positive attitude.
