“No matter how many times you failed or have fallen, no matter how many times you’ve denied God, He will not deny you.”

“You are in danger of living a life so comfortable and soft, that you will die without ever realizing your true potential.”

“To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach out to another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self
To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow,
But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live.
Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom.
Only a person who risks is free.”

“Knowledge is power: You hear it all the time but knowledge is not power. It's only potential power. It only becomes power when we apply it and use it.
Somebody who reads a book and doesn't apply it, they're at no advantage over someone who's illiterate.
None of it works unless YOU work. We have to do our part. If knowing is half the battle, action is the second half of the battle.”
