The only thing that ultimately matters is to eat an ice-cream cone, play a slide trombone, plant a small tree, good God, now you're free.

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life - and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

Tears of joy are like the summer rain drops pierced by sunbeams.

Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.

Thought is the wind, knowledge the sail, and mankind the vessel.

It's inspirational to see someone who is dying smile.

How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountains!

Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future.

Men must live and create. Live to the point of tears.
