Let us work as if success depended upon ourselves alone, but with heartfelt conviction that we are doing nothing, and God everything.

Whatever you are doing, that which makes you feel the most alive...that is where God is.

Pray as if God will take care of all; act as if all is up to you.

All the things in this world are gifts of God, created for us, to be the means by which we can come to know him better, love him more surely, and serve him more faithfully.

For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who disbelieve, no amount of proof is sufficient.

He who carries God in his heart bears Heaven with him wherever he goes.

He who goes about to reform the world must begin with himself, or he loses his labor.

It is not hard to obey when we love the one whom we obey.

Love ought to show itself in deeds more than in words.

To conquer himself is the greatest victory that man can gain.

If God causes you to suffer much, it is a sign that He certainly intends to make you a saint.

If we go in to each situation that life throws at us with an attitude that we canlearn from it then we will never be truly defeated.

The entire population of the universe with one trifling exception is composed of others.

I think best with a pencil in my hand.

Nowhere is it ordained that history moves in a straight line.

If you want to make someone feel emotion, you have to make them let go. Listening to something is an act of surrender.

The fame stuff, the kind words from websites and things, are very flattering and lovely, but I just wanna act.

A love that lasts for twenty years may be better than love, but it isn't love.

They could take sesame seeds off the market and I wouldn't even care. I can't imagine 5 years from now saying, "Remember sesame seeds? What happened? All the buns are blank!"

Only do the thing we are best at doing and enjoy most.

Sesame oil is probably my favorite condiment, period.
