Marriage is one long conversation, chequered by disputes.

I do not seek. I find.

Even youngish men can acquire wisdom as time goes by.

I believe that the way people live can be directed a little by architecture.

Ultimately, leadership is not about glorious crowning acts. It's about keeping your team focused on a goal and motivated to do their best to achieve it, especially when the stakes are high and the consequences really matter. It is about laying the groundwork for others' success, and then standing back and letting them shine.

Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

Passion can quickly slip to jealousy, or even hatred.

Early morning cheerfulness can be extremely obnoxious.

All things are difficult before they are easy.

Marriage is a coming together for better or for worse, hopefully enduring, and intimate to the degree of being sacred.

The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.

If you really want to make a friend, go to someone's house and eat with him... the people who give you their food give you their heart.

If you're trying to create a company, it's like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the right proportion.

I think my mom put it best. She said, 'Little girls soften their daddy's hearts.'

Our work is the presentation of our capabilities.

Architecture starts when you carefully put two bricks together. There it begins.

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.

If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.

Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.

Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will not die, but long after we are gone be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistence.

I have not lost faith in God. I have moments of anger and protest. Sometimes I've been closer to him for that reason.

God will never give you anything you can't handle, so don't stress.

I love wisdom. And you can never be great at anything unless you love it. Not be in love with it, but love the thing, admire the thing. And it seems that if you love the thing, and you don't just want to possess it, it will find you.
