Poverty is not an accident. Like slavery and apartheid, it is man-made, and can be removed by the actions of human beings.

Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.

Find the sweetness in your own heart, then you may find the sweetness in every heart.

Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention.

You only live twice: Once when you are born and once when you look death in the face.

Never tell a young person that anything cannot be done. God may have been waiting centuries for someone ignorant enough of the impossible to do that very thing.

The only way to tell the truth is to speak with kindness. Only the words of a loving man can be heard.
