A happy life is a life for others.

Pay attention to the people God puts in your path if you want to discern what God is up to in your life.

What makes us human is not our mind but our heart, not our ability to think but our ability to love.

For Jesus, there are no countries to be conquered, no ideologies to be imposed, no people to be dominated. There are only children, women and men to be loved.

You don't think your way into a new kind of living. You live your way into a new kind of thinking.

Dare to love and to be a real friend. The love you give and receive is a reality that will lead you closer and closer to God as well as those whom God has given you to love.

My whole life I have been complaining that my work was constantly interrupted, until I discovered that my interruptions were my work.

In a world so torn apart by rivalry, anger, and hatred, we have the privileged vocation to be living signs of a love that can bridge all divisions and heal all wounds.

The main question is not, how can we hide our wounds...but how can we put our woundedness in service to others.

O Lord, make this Lenten season different from the other ones. Let me find you again. Amen.

Behave like men, and not like witless sheep...

Humans have a propensity to oppose things when it is not their idea and they had no input, or simply because it was initiated by those whom they dislike.

Every generation witnesses atrocities. People in power try to fulfill prophecy.

The moment is freedom. — I couldn’t live by a rigid schedule. I try to live freely from moment to moment, letting things happen and adjusting to them.

That's just how I see things. I think things that are the most dramatic or tragic can also look the most ridiculous and funny. That's part of being human.

Ask God's blessings on your work but don't ask Him to do it for you.

Get back up, shake the dust off and keep going. Keep going, because Hollywood is set up to make you fail.

The great thing about being 30 is that there are a great deal more available women. The young ones look younger and the old ones don't look nearly as old.

No child is capable of speech until he has heard other human beings speak, and even two infants reared together cannot develop a language from scratch.

Have a sense of pride in your motherland. Just as your mother has given birth to you, so too the land has given birth to you.
