“Fear is a bigger disability than having no arms and no legs.”

Keep moving ahead because action creates momentum, which in turn creates unanticipated opportunities.

If I fail, I try again, and again, and again. If YOU fail, are you going to try again? The human spirit can handle much worse than we realize. It matters HOW you are going to FINISH. Are you going to finish strong?

No matter who you are, no matter what you’re going through, God knows it. He is with you. He is going to pull you through.

I am God’s creation ,designed according to His plan for me.

I will try one hundred times to get up, and if I fail one hundred times. If I fail and I give up, will I ever get up? No! If I fail I’ll try again, and again and again. But I want to tell you it’s not the end.

The greatest rewards come when you give of yourself. It’s about bettering the lives of others, being part of something bigger than yourself, and making a positive difference.

Often people ask how I manage to be happy despite having no arms and no legs. The quick answer is that I have a choice. I can be angry about not having limbs, or I can be thankful that I have a purpose. I chose gratitude.

I honestly didn’t think miracles could ever come from my broken pieces, and I was disabled in fear that my dreams would always remain as dreams. Don’t give up on you. Don’t give up on God. Don’t give up on love.

You do not know what you can achieve until you try.

I don’t want to be someone’s reason to hate their life. I want to be someone’s reason to seek something more in their life.

Whether your life is happy or not is your own choice.

We need to awaken the next generation to understand that we are all change-makers. The nation is not as strong as its government but its next generation

Don’t put your life on hold so that you can dwell on the unfairness of past hurts.

Failure is not important, how you overcome it is.

When you can’t get a miracle, you can still be a miracle for someone else.

You don’t know what God can do with your broken pieces until you give God your broken pieces.

Yet often, they know but just don’t care. So the task of serious journalism isn’t just to lay out truths. It is to make vital truths compelling to a big audience.

That’s a big part of my life – doing things that I’m not prepared to do.

I dated Siamese twins, I slept with Big Foot, too. Get me on Sally Jesse, put me on Donahue.

I know there’s a big bad world out there, but I rarely come across it.

I start with a comprehensive list of all the recent songs that have been big hits – and then I go down that list and see if I can come up with funny ideas for them. I can always come up with ideas, but not necessarily good ones!

Every night for dinner we had a big chunk of dirt.

Certainly the movies were always in the air for me. I come from the era when actors thought it was a big deal to be in the movies.

So that’s my little ministry that the Big Man upstairs gave to me – a little ministry called love and happiness.
