My father used to say that it's never too late to do anything you wanted to do. And he said, 'You never know what you can accomplish until you try.'

The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function.

If you don't want to work you have to work to earn enough money so that you won't have to work.

In the spring of 1936, I was introduced by friends to Jean Tatlock. In the autumn, I began to court her. We were at least twice close enough to marriage to think of ourselves as engaged.

In reality, relationships that are successful tend to take the attitude, 'How can I help you?' 'How can I enrich your life?' 'How can I be a better husband to you,' if it's a marriage.

My birthday is always around Thanksgiving, and I always had to have turkey on my birthday. My mom was always, 'Let's celebrate your birthday on Thanksgiving.' My other siblings got to have special dinners they liked. I resented turkey. For a long time, I hated turkey. I've kind of gotten over it.

It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was.

The only way to enjoy anything in this life is to earn it first.

You don't have to deserve your mother's love. You have to deserve your father's.

I'm not really easy to live with! There needs to be unlimited patience and unconditional love. Men I've known before loved my independent spirit and were proud of my success, to the point that they'd become jealous of the time I devote to my career.

Jealousy is the jaundice of the soul.

I don't build in order to have clients. I have clients in order to build.

You can be the moon and still be jealous of the stars.

To give thanks in solitude is enough. Thanksgiving has wings and goes where it must go. Your prayer knows much more about it than you do.

Thanksgiving just gets me all warm and tingly and all kinds of wonderful inside.

Each age has deemed the new-born year the fittest time for festal cheer.

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.

The knives of jealousy are honed on details.

Most of us have fond memories of food from our childhood. Whether it was our mom's homemade lasagna or a memorable chocolate birthday cake, food has a way of transporting us back to the past.

Leadership is unlocking people's potential to become better.

There are many things that are essential to arriving at true peace of mind, and one of the most important is faith, which cannot be acquired without prayer.

The only think I like better than talking about Food is eating.

Meetings are indispensable when you don't want to do anything.

Without courage, wisdom bears no fruit.
