“Unkind people need your kindness the most. They advertise their pain.”

It is only in God that we discover our origin, our identity, our meaning, our purpose, our significance, and our destiny. Every other path leads to a dead end.

Be grateful for who you are and whatever you have. Everything you have is a gift from God.

In deep pain, people don’t need logic, advice, encouragement, or even Scripture. They just need you to show up and shut up.

The best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now.

I invite you to bow your head and quietly whisper the prayer that will change your eternity: Jesus I believe in you and I receive you.

God is always more interested in why we do something than in what we do. Attitudes count more than achievements.

If you try to serve people, it impresses them. If you try to impress people it irritates them.

Delays are as much a part of God plan as answered prayers. God wants you to trust him.

Learning to love unselfishly is not an easy task. It runs counter to our self-centered nature.

Great opportunities are often disguised as small acts of service.

The more you care about the powerless, the more power you have. The more you serve those with no influence, the more influence God gives you. The more you humble yourself, the more you’re honored by others.

If Jesus is king in heaven then the Kingdom of God is in heaven. If Jesus is king, reign on earth then the Kingdom of Heaven is on earth. If Jesus is king in my heart, then the Kingdom of God is in me.

Surrender is not the best way to live; it is the only way to live. Nothing else works.

Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.

Little people belittle people. Great people make people feel great.

People may refuse our love or reject our message, but they are defenseless against our prayers.

Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless.

Companies that pretend to care about music and really care about other things – whether it be hardware, whether it be advertising – and now they look at music as a loss leader. And we know music isn’t a loss leader; music is an important part of our lives.

It has become a certainty now that if you will only advertise sufficiently you may make a fortune by selling anything.

I will commend the Democrats for one thing. If they name Keith Ellison as the head of the DNC, then I’ll commend them for truth in advertising.

Until the rise of American advertising, it never occurred to anyone anywhere in the world that the teenager was a captive in a hostile world of adults.

The philosophy behind much advertising is based on the old observation that every man is really two men – the man he is and the man he wants to be.

Advertising is legalized lying.

I’ve spent so many years waiting for publishers to consider whether they wanted to print a book of mine, making contracts, taking months to fit it into the Fall list or the Spring list, fitting it into an advertising plan.
