“The Lord that I serve says the impossible is unacceptable.”

All I ever wanted to do was music, and all I’ve ever asked, as I’ve gotten to know and discover the world more, is that God would use me in any way to encourage and inspire love and inspire people to bring and give love to each other.

Sometimes, I feel I am really blessed to be blind because I probably would not last a minute if I were able to see things.

As a matter of fact, wherever I find that law exists, I will not perform in that state or in that part of the world.

You can’t hear me? Read my lips!

Music at its essence is what gives us memories.

I’ve had some incredibly triumphal things happen in my life.

When you believe in things that you don’t understand, then you suffer.

Change your words into truths and then change that truth into LOVE.

First of all, I’m no better than the next person.

Now some folks say that we should be glad for what we have. Tell me, would you be happy in Village Ghetto Land?

Law and order comes from having respect for one another.

It could have been worse. I could have been born black.

Music is a world within itself, with a language we all understand.

We all have ability. The difference is how we use it.

I think honestly, some people who think they’re gay, they’re confused.

I’m believing that miracles and blessings still exist.

I think that in order to parent effectively, we are going to have to admit two things: We can’t keep our children safe. We can’t accept the fact that we can’t keep our children safe.

Be patient when it seems things are not going right and may never be right again. Accept that what is yours will come to you in the right way at just the right moment.

I will not seek, and I will not accept the nomination of my party for another term as your president.

You do not have to love what is going on in your life, but you must accept that it, whatever it is, is going on. As long as you do not accept reality, you are powerless to define the role you will play.

I don’t really focus on these things – on what tags are given to me or what people think of me off the field – stuff like that. My main focus is always to do well on the field for the Indian cricket team. When people say good things about me off the field, I am more than happy to accept them.

A lily or a rose never pretends, and its beauty is that it is what it is.

Nothing destroys self-worth, self-acceptance and self-love faster than denying what you feel. Without feelings, you would not know where you are in life. Nor would you know what areas you need to work on. Honor your feelings. Allow yourself to feel them.

Acceptance means that you know, regardless of what happened, that there is something bigger than you at work. It also means you know that you are okay and that you will continue to be okay.
