“I believe that you control your destiny, that you can be what you want to be.”

If you don’t like the scene you’re in, if you’re unhappy, if you’re lonely, if you don’t feel that things are happening, change your scene. Paint a new backdrop.

Happiness and love are just a choice away.

It is when we ask for love less and begin giving it more that the basis of human love is revealed to us.

We need to learn to let go as easily as we grasp and we will find our hands full and our minds empty.

To love others you must first love yourself.

Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out they don’t.

Each of our acts makes a statement as to our purpose.

Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lie’s man’s only promise.

Living, loving & learning.

Most of us remain strangers to ourselves, hiding who we are, and ask other strangers, hiding who they are, to love us.

There is nothing that is an accident.

When we cling to pain we end up punishing ourselves.

We are born for love, but it will die if not nurtured.

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Time has no meaning in itself unless we choose to give it significance.

Don’t brood. Get on with living and loving. You don’t have forever.

I’d rather believe in my own choice and see it all go wrong than do something I’m not fully convinced of and later feel guilty about it.

Goliath was a champion, a monster who had never been beaten, and then this young guy, David, came forward, a child who believed in God and did it.

If I fail, if I succeed, at least I live as I believe.

Nothing steals God’s glory more than worrying believers who are driven through life by fear.

I decided long ago never to walk in anyone’s shadow; if I fail, or if I succeed at least I did as I believe.

Christian, n.: one who believes that the New Testament is a divinely inspired book admirably suited to the spiritual needs of his neighbor.

I believe in fate and I believe that things happen for a reason, but I don’t think that there’s a high power, necessarily. I believe in karma very much though.

How much I daydream about heaven and how much I believe I’m going there are probably directly proportional.
