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

Word of mouth is the best medium of all.

It is the set of the sails, not the direction of the wind that determines which way we will go.

Success is the sum of small efforts - repeated day in and day out.

Thanksgiving is a time when the world gets to see just how blessed and how workable the Christian system is. The emphasis is not on giving or buying, but on being thankful and expressing that appreciation to God and to one another.

Thanksgiving, man. Not a good day to be my pants.

What is success? I think it is a mixture of having a flair for the thing that you are doing; knowing that it is not enough, that you have got to have hard work and a certain sense of purpose.

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

There are no great limits to growth because there are no limits of human intelligence, imagination, and wonder.

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day.

There is little success where there is little laughter.

I tried to bake a cake for my mother's birthday - it took me four hours. It was terrible, and I cried for three days.
