Thinking is more interesting than knowing, but less interesting than looking.

No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit for doing it.

Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless.

In my deepest, darkest moments, what really got me through was a prayer. Sometimes my prayer was 'Help me.' Sometimes a prayer was 'Thank you.'

I think we take it for granted that if you are with your husband after 30 years, then he is the love of your life.

Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.

It is not love that is blind, but jealousy.
