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

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

Tears are often the telescope by which men see far into heaven.

Plant thy foot firmly in the prints which His foot has made before thee.

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

And now, this is the sweetest and most glorious day that ever my eyes did see.

We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.

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.

Don't let the fear of striking out hold you back.

Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.
