Remember that to change your mind and follow him who sets you right is to be none the less free than you were before.

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

The opinion of 10,000 men is of no value if none of them know anything about the subject.

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.

The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

When many voices are speaking at once, listen to the one most quiet and gentle. That’s the one worth listening to. ~ Miranda* ~

The time you spend loving is the most valuable time of your life.

I accept sceptics, you've got to have challenges.

Translated books rarely get reviewed in the press. Books or poems or works of art that don't seem to have a corresponding style or figure or theme, obviously they're hard to digest.

I like the trivial, vulgar and exalted.

You bet your Grannie's Panties I will.

Do not forget this: the Lord never wearies of forgiving! We are the ones who weary of asking for forgiveness.

If the Cowboys and Titans ain't playing, I'm not interested.
