We live in a world where people say that you can believe anything you want about God.

Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.

The world says love yourself, grab all you can, follow your heart. Jesus says deny yourself, grab your cross and follow me.

But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.

God has allowed hard things in your life so you can show the world that your God is great and that knowing Him brings peace and joy, even when life is hard.

Money is only a problem to those that aren't willing to develop a higher conscience about how to master it.

If everyone could just live near the ocean, I think we'd all be happier. It's hard to be down about anything knee deep in the sand.

If you only do what you want to do, you won't get there.

Clear, crisp, and compelling. . . . Mitzvah Girls is a thoughtful look at the world of Jewish girls who grow up in 21st-century America, but don't really.

With the Cubs, they've gone so long without a World Series championship, they wanted to win every day. I want that too, but I didn't feel comfortable.

Humans are too stupid to prevent climate change from radically impacting on our lives over the coming decades.

God knows, I'm no the thing I should be, Nor am I even the thing I could be.

This world is moving around like a wheel. That indeed is the last birth in which one gets completely rid of all desires.

Venus told me the other day that champions don't get nervous in tight situations. That really helped me a lot. I decided I shouldn't get nervous and just do the best I can.

Find a need and fill it, find a hurt and heal it.
