You do not have to be superhuman to do what you believe in.

Number one, I absolutely love making chocolate chip cookies. I mean, it's fun. It's exciting. Beyond the fact that I love making them, I love eating them.

The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is to not try. Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it.

When you're taking care of the customer, you can never do too much. And there is no wrong way... if it comes from the heart.

…everyone needs a somewhere, a place he can go. There comes a time, you see, inevitably there comes a time you have to have a somewhere you can go!

What good does it do to tell somebody to live morally so they can die 50 years later and apparently go to Hell?

Some of my academic friends think Ive fallen from a very special grace.

We in middle age require adventure.

I believe my arrival was most welcome, not only to the Commander of the Fleet but almost to every individual in it.

The principal role of the mutual fund is to serve its investors.

Having both a pet and a book...absolute heaven.

When you know the language of love,it's easy to understand that someone in the world awaits you.

True love can fear no one.
