We are perhaps uniquely among the earth's creatures the worrying animal. We worry away our lives fearing the future discontent with the present unable to take in the idea of dying unable to sit still.

Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs honor your creator not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself right now right down here on Earth.

They did that little thing on South Park and they mentioned my name and had a character of me judging a Halloween contest. It was really funny.That made me the coolest aunt on earth.

It's a funny thing that when a man hasn't anything on earth to worry about he goes off and gets married.

Freedom of choice is more to be treasured than any possession earth can give.

We can't equate democracy with Christianity because the largest democracy on earth is India which is primarily Hindu. The third largest democracy is Indonesia which is Islamic. Democracy and freedom are not dependent on Christian beliefs.

I am involved in a freedom ride protesting the loss of the minority rights belonging to the few remaining earthbound stars. All we demanded was our right to twinkle.

I do not know that any writer has supposed that on this earth man will ultimately be able to live without food.

As the earth spins through space a view from above the North Pole would encompass most of the wealth of the world - most of its food productive machines doctors engineers and teachers. A view from the opposite pole would encompass most of the world's poor.

Kids will keep it real. If I've ever had in my life a great anchor it's them. They get in your head 'don't get too famous.' If you think you're really famous and think you're really hip go hang out with your kids for an afternoon. That's about as earthbound as it's going to get.

For famous men have the whole earth as their memorial.
