My dad and mom believed that you do what you have to do in private and don't make a big deal out of it. Just try to help people as much as you can.

Humor is perhaps a sense of intellectual perspective: an awareness that some things are really important, others not; and that the two kinds are most oddly jumbled in everyday affairs.

Christopher Morley, Inward Ho

Life is nothing but the expansion of love. We can cultivate divine love by entering into the Source. The Source is God, who is all Love.

Sri Chinmoy

Even if it is only for a matter of moments, because those moments bring with them a Love so intense that it justifies the rest of our days.

Paulo Coelho

All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today.

Pope Paul VI

Fairness means everyone gets what they need. And the only way to get what you need is to make it happen yourself.

Rick Riordan

I am growing and learning. There's so much more that I want to accomplish and do. I'm gonna do it at whatever pace it happens. I'm not trying to rush anything or slow anything down.

Jordin Sparks

We cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh.

Agnes Repplier

Problems are not the problem; coping is the problem.

Virginia Satir

Everything established, settled, everything to do with home and order and the common ground, has crumbled into dust and has been swept away in the general upheaval and reorganization of the whole of society. The whole human way of life has been destroyed and ruined. All that's left is the bare, shivering human soul, stripped to the last shred, the naked force of the human psyche for which nothing has changed because it was always cold and shivering and reaching out to its nearest neighbor, as cold and lonely as itself.

Boris Pasternak

To eat bread without hope is still slowly to starve to death.

Pearl S. Buck

Of course it's the same old story. Truth usually is the same old story.

Margaret Thatcher

Best thing you could probably do as a father is make sure they see how much you love their mother.
