Hell is paved with good intentions, not bad ones

(Just to give you an idea, Proust's reply was 'To be separated from Mama.') I think that the lowest depth of misery ought to be distinguished from the highest pitch of anguish.

Jerry O'Connell

It never failed to amaze me how the most ordinary day could be catapulted into the extraordinary in the blink of an eye.

A loving family provides the foundation children need to succeed, and strong families with a man and a woman - bonded together for life - always have been, and always will be, the key to such families.

Jim Bunning

My father never raised his hand to any one of his children, except in self-defense.
