“My persistence is the measure of the belief I have in myself.”

I always like to look on the optimistic side of life.

I function better when things are going badly than when they’re as smooth as whipped cream.

There is no magic in magic, it’s all in the details.

Laughter is no enemy to learning.

Even miracles take a little time.

Always fight for quality, whether giving or receiving.

Those who are clever, who have a brain, never understand anything.

Life is beautiful. It’s about giving. It’s about family.

If you can visualize it, if you can dream it, there’s some way to do it.

You don’t build it for yourself. You know what the people want and you build it for them.

That’s what we storytellers do. We restore order with imagination. We instill hope again and again and again.

Good bye may seem forever. Farewell is like the end, but in my heart is the memory and there you will always be.

The difference in winning & losing is most often, not quitting.

Whatever we accomplish belongs to our entire group, a tribute to our combined effort.

The wonders of nature are endless.

I love the nostalgic myself. I hope we never lose some of the things of the past.

Make Winning an Attitude.

Something as curious as the monarchy won’t survive unless you take account of people’s attitudes. After all, if people don’t want it, they won’t have it.

we unwittingly project onto God our own attitudes and feelings toward ourselves… But we cannot assume that He feels about us the way we feel about ourselves — unless we love ourselves compassionately, intensely, and freely.

If you want to change attitudes, start with a change in behavior.

Life can be wildly tragic at times, and I’ve had my share. But whatever happens to you, you have to keep a slightly comic attitude. In the final analysis, you have got not to forget to laugh.

If men gave birth, they’d be less inconsiderate.

Our attitudes control our lives. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force.

I naturally want to be provocative.
