It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.

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

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom.

Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears, not to oust them.

Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

Great hopes make great men.

The best form of flattery is to be admired, imitated or respected. I've always felt proud our fans look up to us or feel we are inspirational.

Change your thoughts and you change your world.

There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.
