One can make a day of any size

The power of imagination makes us infinite.

As long as I live, I'll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing.

Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt.

The grand show is eternal It is always sunrise somewhere

I’d rather be in the mountains thinking of God, than in church thinking about the mountains.

Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity.

Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.

In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.

God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools.

Wilderness is a necessity... there must be places for human beings to satisfy their souls.

Knowing ourselves is knowing our worth in the eyes of God. That’s why the number one thought we cannot fail to think and believe is that He loves us. Always. No matter what.

I've grown up with country music. I love how real everybody is, not just the artists, but the fans.

I don't believe in happy families.

I strike up conversations all the time and it is very interesting, finding out about things I know nothing about.

I went to Notre Dame. I don't know if that has any relevance, but maybe we all had a little too much philosophy and theology.

Prayer gives a man the opportunity of getting to know a gentleman he hardly ever meets. I do not mean his maker, but himself.
