“I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.”

“A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading.”

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.”

“You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.”
