“It’s not about having the answers in life. It’s about the search for the answers, the choosing to believe in something bigger than yourself that makes the journey of faith so challenging, yet so worthwhile… That is the crazy, glorious, sometimes maddening but always satisfying in the end, journey that we call faith.”
― Mitch Albom, Have a Little Faith: a True Story

“This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no “brief candle” to me. It is a sort of splendid torch, which I have got hold for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.”
― George Bernard Shaw

“You have to be vigorous. That’s the only way you are going to get it, because everybody has dreams and everybody has goals, but the only people who achieve them are the one that go after it and don’t take no for an answer.”
― Nick Cannon
