Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith.

A lot of Thanksgiving days have been ruined by not carving the turkey in the kitchen.

Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in advancing toward what will be.

There is no greater glory than love, nor any greater punishment than jealousy.

Jealousy is just love and hate at the same time.

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

There is one person who sends me three cards every year. One on New Year's, one for my birthday and the third that marks the anniversary of my flight into space.

United we stand, divided we fall.

A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering, 'It will be happier.'

To fulfill a dream, to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor, to be given a chance to create, is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy.

I think that when you get dressed in the morning, sometimes you're really making a decision about your behavior for the day. Like if you put on flipflops, you're saying: 'Hope I don't get chased today.' 'Be nice to people in sneakers.'

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.

Sometimes too much to drink is barely enough.

You can observe a lot just by watching.

Outstanding leaders go out of their way to boost the self-esteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it's amazing what they can accomplish.

As a technology, the book is like a hammer. That is to say, it is perfect: a tool ideally suited to its task. Hammers can be tweaked and varied but will never go obsolete. Even when builders pound nails by the thousand with pneumatic nail guns, every household needs a hammer.

Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the soul.

We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.

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

My New Year's Resolution List usually starts with the desire to lose between ten and three thousand pounds.

The most efficient way to live reasonably is every morning to make a plan of one's day and every night to examine the results obtained.

That's one of the great things about Thanksgiving: Football's on!

I do not seek. I find.
