This is the core of the human spirit ... If we can find something to live for - if we can find some meaning to put at the center of our lives - even the worst kind of suffering becomes bearable.

When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.

When a person can’t find a deep sense of meaning, they distract themselves with pleasure.

Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose.

The one thing you can't take away from me is the way I choose to respond to what you do to me.

Our greatest human freedom is that, despite whatever our physical situation is in life, WE ARE ALWAYS FREE TO CHOOSE OUR THOUGHTS!

You become great when you are eager to find and nourish greatness in the hearts of others.

No matter how dull, or how mean, or how wise a man is, he feels that happiness is his indisputable right.

We've got a low turnover management group and executive group who've grown up in the business.

My general rule is that if everyone knew how to cook fresh produce from their local area, and Monday to Thursday within 20 minutes, you know, there's millions of recipes out there to be had.

I knew we were in for a long season when we lined up for the national anthem on opening day and one of my players said, 'Every time I hear that song I have a bad game.'

If you are in love-that's a good thing-that's about the best thing that can happen to anyone.

Now, if you want to know my secret love, it is to be able to serve as an example.

Sexism - you can't be sexy and intelligent. It's not allowed.

Publish in haste and repent at leisure.

Actually I'm a big fan of Spielberg and the way he shoots action scenes.
