Kids can be a pain in the neck when they're not a lump in your throat.

We cannot protect ourselves from trouble, but we can dance through the puddles of life with a rainbow smile, twirling the only umbrella we need -- the umbrella of God's love.

Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.

The attitude of kindness is everyday stuff like a great pair of sneakers. Not frilly. Not fancy. Just plain and comfortable.

If you can forgive the person you were, accept the person you are, and believe in the person you will become, you are headed for joy. So celebrate your life.

Attitude is the mind's paintbrush; it can color any situation.

Always remember that better days are ahead - if not in this life, in the next.

Patience is the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping your gears.

Faith is seeing light with your heart when all your eyes see is darkness.

Prayer is asking for rain and faith is carrying the umbrella.

A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand.

A culture that does not teach prayer soon runs mad with desire.

I'm thrilled with my body of work.

I actually try and work before my mind is telling me what to do.

There are three different kinds of scripting: functional, informational and emotional.

I am persistent about everything I believe in. If there's a film I want to do, a record, a Broadway show - I do it. Everybody can hate it but I will still do it. I am fearless that way.

Where something becomes extremely difficult and unbearable, there we also stand always already quite near its transformation.

I absolutely trust Hillary Clinton to stand strong on trade agreements.
