No longer can we be satisfied with a life where the heart has its reasons which reason cannot know. Our hearts must know the world of reason, and reason must be guided by an informed heart.

What cannot be talked about cannot be put to rest. And if it is not, the wounds will fester from generation to generation.

You can't teach children to be good. The best you can do for your child is to live a good life yourself. What a parent knows and believes, the child will lean on.

The child intuitively comprehends that although these stories are unreal, they are not untrue.

Punishment may make us obey the orders we are given, but at best it will only teach an obedience to authority, not a self-control which enhances our self-respect.

If we hope to live not just from moment to moment, but in true consciousness of our existence, then our greatest need and most difficult achievement is to find meaning in our lives.

Raising children is a creative endeavor, an art rather than a science.

Play reaches the habits most needed for intellectual growth.

Television captures the mind but does not liberate it. A good book at once stimulates and frees the mind.

Not only is our love for our children sometimes tinged with annoyance, discouragement, and disappointment, the same is true for the love our children feel for us.

The ability to read becomes devalued when what one has learned to read adds nothing of importance to one's life.

I am not afraid to die

Always convert your time into wisdom

If we obey God, the more we shall know his goodness.

Now the British are coming. I think Cameron should ask the Chinese government not to make people 'disappear' or to jail them merely because they have different opinions.

It ain't no joke when you lose your vinyl.

The lost enjoy forever the horrible freedom they have demanded.

Forgiveness isn't an end in itself. The point of forgiveness is to remove the barrier that stands between us and God so that He can give us His Spirit and bring us into His everlasting family.

I never have kids in movies or in TV shows.

I don't have hobbies; hobbies cost money. Interests are quite free.

I got a phone call saying we are from the News of the World, and we're exposing you and David Beckham. My heart did not beat for a minute.
