Weddings and funerals are when you figure out who your real friends are.

Unsolicited advice is always self-serving.

People don't change when they don't acknowledge their actions.

Climb aboard life's elevator, hit the "up" button, and see where it takes you.

Sometimes the way through someone's tough outer shell is to do something obvious, thoughtful and sweet.

This is a tough situation. But it is what it is, and time has an amazing way of knitting together solutions as long as everybody stays calm and resolves to be as gentle and patient as possible.

Bullies never want to acknowledge their own actions. They want to move through life without reflection or apology.

When you are criticizing someone, you should speak only to your own experience - not others'.

I love making people smile. I get so much energy through interacting and feeling like I've made a difference, a small difference.

Have an objective to give your bender a theme. For instance, stalking and killing a wild pig with a bowie knife.

For what is idolatry if not this: to worship the gifts in place of the Giver himself?

World don't need chiefs. We need engaged, talented leaders.

I like vending machines, because snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at the store, oftentimes I will drop it so that is achieves its maximum flavor potential.

I love the love of those who are far enough away, it becomes whatever I wish to believe it.

Live your daily life in a way that you never lose yourself

I'm the guy who loves being in the supporting cast.
