Woe to the man who tries to remain objective and to maintain a wide perspective: every one will label him as an enemy.

Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can.

I am convinced that nine out of every ten persons seeing a psychiatrist do not need one. They need someone who will love them with God's love...and they will get well.

Everything that is worthwhile in life is scary. Choosing a school, choosing a career, getting married, having kids - all those things are scary. If it is not fearful, it is not worthwhile.

That is what marriage really means; helping one another to reach the full status of being persons, responsible and autonomous beings who do not run away from life.

There are two things we cannot do alone. One is to be married and the other is to be a Christian.

The adventurous life is not one exempt from fear, but on the contrary, one that is lived in full knowledge of fears of all kinds, one in which we go forward in spite of our fears.

Where there is no longer any opportunity for doubt, there is no longer any opportunity for faith either.

Nothing makes us so lonely as our secrets.

At the heart of personality is the need to feel a sense of being lovable without having to qualify for that acceptance.

To be right is dangerous, it has ever been the source of all intolerance.

Careful how you judge others

Let them march all they want, as long as they continue to pay their taxes.

When life kicks you in the teeth and knocks you down to the ground. Are you able to stand up and keep fighting?! That’s what it’s all about.

I went over to the Charlestown Navy Yard yesterday and saw some big men of war, one over 100 guns.

Writing is an act of cherishing... It is an act of love.

I never talk about anything to do with my sexuality.

In Hollywood the man who cleans your pool is an actor. The man who sells you your copy of Variety is an actor. I don't think there's a real person left in the place.

The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they're alive.
