“But dreams move on, if you wait too long.”

A lot of people think Christianity is about always being perfect. It’s actually the opposite of that. It’s realizing that we’re all humans, and that’s why God sent his Son to this earth – to save people.

I don’t think there’s any accidents in my life.

I went through a struggle, and I really needed to get myself together and connect with my purpose, which is music.

Keep the faculty of effort alive in you by a little gratuitous exercise every day.

The people at the record company had asked me if I could write a song about my life, my relationship with God, and where I’m from.

Well, I can’t write a song on purpose, my songs come in a moment of inspiration or desperation.

This table’s a bit like life. It’s a circle. And I believe everything in life is a circle. You come into this world a little teeny wrinkled-up fetus

I always prayed that God would give me the wisdom and the vision to do the things on this earth that I was supposed to do to express His life and love and His will.

There has always been a battle between good and evil.

Not making a decision is the worst thing you can do. So long as you feel you made the right decision based on the information you had at that time, there’s no need to fret about it. If it fails, you’ll know what to do next time.

I think the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals abused its power all day long.

Democracy may not prove in the long run to be as efficient as other forms of government, but it has one saving grace: it allows us to know and say that it isn’t.

In fact, NSF was the leading successful efforts to improve U.S. math and science education long before the Department of Education was even created.

At times of crisis or distress, it’s poems that people turn to. (Poetry) still has a power to speak to people’s feelings, maybe in a way that fiction, because it works in a longer way, can’t.

I’ve lived long enough to have learned, the closer you get to the fire, the more you get burned.

They established their patriotic credentials long ago, and are either supportive of the Bush agenda or know when to keep their traps shut.
