It's funny, I was talking to somebody who writes for a cop show, and he was saying how they aren't allowed to acknowledge Christmas, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, just because it has to be able to play forever.

Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.

I think that is a better thing than thanksgiving: thanks-living. How is this to be done? By a general cheerfulness of manner, by an obedience to the command of Him by whose mercy we live, by a perpetual, constant delighting of ourselves in the Lord, and by a submission of our desires to His will.

One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters.

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

I love the institution of marriage, and I love my marriage.

We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims.

May this marriage be full of laughter, our every day in paradise.

There is only one success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.

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.

Jealousy is the tie that binds, and binds, and binds.

Often the hands will solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain.

Invincibility lies in the defence; the possibility of victory in the attack.

The only big things I've purchased are my dad's heart valve and a Rolls-Royce for my parents, for their anniversary. And that was only because my dad had a Lady Gaga license plate on our old car and it was making me crazy because he was getting followed everywhere, so I bought him a new car.

The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.

Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.
