My goal is to destroy Christianity.

It is amazing where God will take you when you are willing to follow. Life is full of surprises when we choose mystery over security.

We are all hypocrites in transition. I am not who I want to be, but I am on the journey there, and thankfully I am not whom I used to be.

The church does not exist for us. We are the church, and we exist for the world.

I think a lot of us are not on a path; we're in a rut. We have confused comfort with peace, belief with faith, safety with wisdom, wealth with blessing, and existence with life.

God gives God-sized dreams to people with God-shaped hearts.

The person who loves the process has a much greater chance of success than the person who loves the outcome.

The limitations you are willing to accept establish the boundaries of your existence.

Home is ultimately not about a place to live but about the people with whom you are most fully alive. Home is about love, relationship, community, and belonging, and we are all searching for home.

Your dreams are the product of your longings, a portrait of your potential, and a promise of your future.

As a model, I'm used to having my body scrutinized, and I have a tough skin so I can shake it off. I know I'm the only person that gets to decide how my body should look.

Truth is stranger than fishin.

Successful people...focus on the rewards of success: learning from their mistakes and thinking about how they can improve themselves and their situations.

Soul is not about function; it's about beauty, form, and memory.

I was an idiot when I was a kid.

Incompetence is certainty in the absence of expertise. Overconfidence is certainty in the presence of expertise.

What do Harley-Davidson, LEGO, and Apple have in common? They're all based on communities.

I hope at least that the following will endure: my trust in the people, and my faith in men and women, and in the creation of a world in which it will be easier to love

At Rochester, I came with the same emotions as many of the entering freshman: everything was new, exciting and a bit overwhelming, but at least nobody had heard of my brothers and cousins.
