I wanted just for people to know that, no matter how simple your life is, if you have millions or you don't have anything, you can be happy where you are.

It doesn't matter if a million people tell you what you can't do, or if ten million tell you no. If you get one yes from God that's all you need.

God gives everyone a lane and no one can beat you in your lane. Just stay focused on Him and what you are supposed to do. And everything will be alright.

Rather than focus on your critics, focus on the people who are impacted by your work.

Don't wait for someone to green light your project, build your own intersection.

Once you're truly happy with yourself alone, that's when you are safe to find the right person to spend the rest of your life with.

Don't stop. Narrow your focus to one idea, and make it work. That will give birth to all of the others. All you can do is plant the seed and water it.

The key to life when it gets tough is to keep moving. Just keep moving.

You know, people at Wal-Mart are standing there with their uniforms on. I feel like I'm putting on a uniform to do a movie. I don't feel like it's dressing in drag.

A mother’s love is stronger than distance, more powerful than time and can transcend the grave.

Fear is a sprit that really can stop you from living.

Whoever blessings, shall be abundantly blessed.

The Christian story, centered as it is on the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, is the only story for making sense of desire and loss.

Any given program will expand to fill all available memory.

What we do with the things we have makes the biggest difference in the quality of life

Always take the high road.

Teens are not like the weird, dumb dwarves you have around your house. They are actually you when you were younger.

You do the best you can. But it's hard. When I find things egregiously misrepresentative of women, I'll make a point to say to my son, "Turn that off. I don't want to see women behave that way.

Therefore, brethren, pray until God gives us revelation so that "knowing this" in our spirit we may truly confess "that our old man has been crucified with him."

It's best to incorporate a broadly eclectic point of view, and let whatever moves you be your inspiration.
