No good deed ever goes wasted.

I'm not perfect, ... But i'm enough

Why bad things happen to good people

I wish i spent more time at the office.

There is no right way to do a wrong thing.

You nourish your soul by fulfilling your destiny.

Being kind to others is a way of being good to yourself.

Our awareness of God starts where self-sufficiency ends.

Fun can be the dessert of our lives but never its main course.

We cannot live without the knowledge that someone cares about us.

When facing a dilemma, choose the more morally demanding alternative.

When you are kind to others, it not only changes you, it changes the world.

We tend to take on the coloration of the setting in which we find ourselves.

History is written by winners, so most history books are about people who win.

Forgiveness is a favor we do for ourselves, not a favor we do to the other party.

God, who neither causes nor prevents tragedies, helps by inspiring people to help.

Only a life of goodness and honesty leaves us feeling spiritually healthy and human.

One man alone can't defeat the forces of evil, but many good people coming together can.

What cannot be achieved in one lifetime will happen when one lifetime is joined to another.

I think of life as a good book. The further you get into it, the more it begins to make sense.

God is the One who is with us when we have to do something we don't think we are capable of doing.

The path to God is rarely a steady climb upward. We climb, we fall back, and we climb higher again.

Caring about others, running the risk of feeling, and leaving an impact on people brings happiness.

You don't become happy by pursuing happiness. You become happy by living a life that means something.

Many biblical verses are like inkblot tests, revealing more about us than about the text in question.

Our responding to life's unfairness with sympathy... may be the surest proof of all of God's reality.

Do things for people not because of who they are or what they do in return, but because of who you are.

God is like a mirror. The mirror never changes, but everybody who looks at it sees something different.

I believe that God is totally moral, but nature, one of God's creatures, is not moral. Nature is blind.

Our human bodies are miracles, not because they defy laws of nature, but precisely because they obey them.

One of the most sublime experiences we can ever have is to wake up feeling healthy after we have been sick.

. . .We are here to finish God's labors. . .so that we could be His partners in completing the work of creation.

The small choices and decisions we make a hundred times a day add up to determining the kind of world we live in.

We teach children how to measure and how to weigh. We fail to teach them how to revere, how to sense wonder and awe.

We don't have to be afraid of dying because it's not really death that scares us. We are afraid of not having lived.

We are here to change the world with small acts of thoughtfulness done daily rather than with one great breakthrough.

There are some things we should feel guilty about, but the guilt feelings should attach to the deed, not to the doer.

Never attribute to malice or other deliberate decision what can be explained by human frailty, imperfection, or ignorance.

There is a Jewish notion that holiness is found with other people. To understand what life really is, one has to share it.

Good people will do good things, lots of them, because they are good people. They will do bad things because they are human.

In all my years of counselling those near death, I've yet to hear anyone say they wish they had spent more time at the office

You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always control what you will feel and do about what happens to you.

People are so busy chasing happiness- if they would slow down and turn around, they would give it a chance to catch up with them.

We do ourselves and others a disservice when we make old age something to be feared...The longer we live, the more life we possess.

Seek something outside your nine-to-five job as an additional source of fulfillment and as a way to feel the joy of helping others.

We pray to you, O God ... for strength, determination, and willpower, to do instead of just to pray, to become instead of merely to wish.

Children need parents who will let them grow up to be themselves, but parents often have personal agendas they try to impose on their children.

Prayer is simply coming into the presence of God. Because when you come into the presence of God, even the things you don't have matter a lot less.

The circumstances of your life have uniquely qualified you to make a contribution. And if you don't make that contribution, nobody else can make it.

I said in an interview at the time that God's job is not to make sick people healthy. That's the doctors' job. God's job is to make sick people brave.
