The soul’s steps are greater than the heart’s leaps.

A genuine smile is one of the world’s rarest treasures.

A fish that is afraid of drowning in a river is ignorant of its gifts.

A diamond earns its sparkle from the pressure it endures.

It is in the storm, not the calm, that a rainbow is born.

A determined seed cannot be hidden from the world, not even by dirt.

Calm skies don't make skillful eagles.

If you cry in the rain, only the sky will see your tears.

Birds keep singing beautiful songs, even if they have no audience.

Today's storms help you appreciate tomorrow’s sunshine.

Train the ears to hear more, the eyes to see more, the hands to do more, the feet to accomplish more, the mind to think more, the heart to feel more, and the soul to love more.

You can't fake comedy - it's not like a movie, where a director can just cast a pretty face.

I've never slept with a virgin, but I love breaking the seal on a new peanut butter.

In the high country of the mind one has to become adjusted to the thinner air of uncertainty.

The things that I have apparently parodied I actually admire.

Never but the one matter. The dead and gone. The dying and going. From the word go.

Weave me a rope that will pull me through these impossible times.
