“When I have learned to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now.”

Do not let us mistake necessary evils for good.

Life is too deep for words, so don’t try to describe it, just live it.

Things never happen the same way twice.

I pray because I can’t help myself. I pray because I’m helpless. It doesn’t change God – it changes me.

Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear.

There is a kind of happiness and wonder that makes you serious. It is too good to waste on jokes.

God doesn’t want something from us. He simply wants us.

Nothing is really ours until we share it.

I don’t pray so that I can change God. I pray so that God can change me.

I can’t imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once.

God can’t give us peace and happiness apart from Himself because there is no such thing.

Love as distinct from “being in love” is not merely a feeling. It is a deep unity, maintained by the will and deliberately strengthened by habit.

A sign of a culture that has lost its faith – Moral collapse follows upon spiritual collapse.

You have to have absolute confidence. Keep right on going, and nothing will happen.

I was working three jobs and going to school full time. I was really unhappy and I told myself, You are not this girl. This sounds corny but I would tell myself, You are an Icy Girl. I’m a confident person, but that was the first time I experienced insecurity and low self-esteem.

My music is me letting the world know how confident I am in myself, and me basically telling other women, and guys, how confident and how comfortable I believe they should be.

I want to show other girls how happy I am and how confident I am, how I still want to go to school and I still want to rap.

People who ask confidently get more than those who are hesitant and uncertain. When you’ve figured out what you want to ask for, do it with certainty, boldness and confidence.

Confidence Tell Coaches The quarterbacks that win. Those are the quarterbacks that are talked about for being great.

If you’re presenting yourself with confidence, you can pull off pretty much anything.

I’m attracted to guys who are really confident and make conversation.
