The moment someone chooses to trust in Jesus Christ, his sins are wiped away, and he is adopted into God's family. That individual is set apart as a child of God, with a sacred purpose.

The belief in immortality has always seemed cowardly to me. When very young I learned that all things die, and all that we wish of good must be won on this earth or not at all.

Anne Smedley

I became a set designer for opera. I'm a great opera buff, I love classical music, and I needed a time-out.

Maurice Sendak

Serious sport is war minus the shooting.

George Orwell

Clothes and manners do not make the man; but when he is made, they greatly improve his appearance

Henry Ward Beecher

I saw many people who had advanced heart disease and I was so frustrated because I knew if they just knew how to do the right thing, simple lifestyle and diet steps, that the entire trajectory of their life and health would have been different.

Mehmet Oz

Do not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experience.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The cinema, like the detective story, enables us to experience without danger to ourselves all the excitements, passions, and fantasies which have to be repressed in a humanistic age.

Carl Gustav Jung

We cannot build the future by avenging the past.

T.H. White

Many kids come out of college, they have a credit card and a diploma. They don't know how to buy a house or a car or health insurance or life insurance. They do not know basic microeconomics.

Jesse Jackson

The future belongs to God, and it is only he who reveals it, under extraordinary circumstances. How do I guess at the future? Based on the omens of the present. The secret is here in the present. If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it. And, if you improve on the present, what comes later will also be better. Forget about the future, and live ach day according to the teachings, confident that God loves his children. Each day, in itself, brings with it an eternity.

Paulo Coelho

If thou remember'st not the slightest folly that ever love did make thee run into, thou hast not loved.

William Shakespeare

Facts are stubborn things, but statistics are pliable.

Mark Twain
