You often feel that your prayers scarcely reach the ceiling but oh get into this humble spirit by considering how good the Lord is and how evil you all are and then prayer will mount on wings of faith to heaven.

I have a disproportionate amount of faith in the goodness of the world and that everything will actually work out okay.

As someone with a deep faith in competition and the market I also know that markets only work with tough enforcement of the rules that guarantee competition and fair play - and that the pressure to break those rules only gets stronger as the amount of money involved gets larger.

Where there is the necessary technical skill to move mountains there is no need for the faith that moves mountains.

Patience and Diligence like faith remove mountains.

Faith moves mountains but you have to keep pushing while you are praying.

There is no failure except in no longer trying. There is no defeat except from within no really insurmountable barrier save our own inherent weakness of purpose.

I've had a fair amount of experience with snakes and I find them to be pretty honest in terms of how you read their body language and emotions. They'll tell you when they're grumpy. They'll tell you when they're okay.

The amount of meetings I've been in - people would be shocked. But that's how you gain experience how you can gain knowledge being in meetings and participating. You learn and grow.

Most men are very attached to the idea of being male and usually experience a lot of fear and insecurity around the idea of being a man. Most women are very identified with their gender and also experience a tremendous amount of fear and insecurity.

You lose your individuality a huge amount when you have no money and I certainly had that experience.

There's a remarkable amount of sexism on TV. When male characters are flawed they're interesting deep and complex. But when female characters are flawed they're just a mess. It's good to put more flawed but interesting female characters out there because it promotes equality.

There are a tremendous amount of environmental issues that are on the table.

We need to accept the seemingly obvious fact that a toxic environment can make people sick and that no amount of medical intervention can protect us. The health care community must become a powerful political lobby for environmental policy and legislation.

Every time I have some moment on a seashore or in the mountains or sometimes in a quiet forest I think this is why the environment has to be preserved.

Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away once in awhile and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.

I've seen people with a tremendous amount of educational background in the field not turn out to be terribly good actors and I've seen people with no education in the field turn out to be people that I admire quite a bit.

The amount of money we spend on education is important but not nearly as important as how the money is spent.

We have over 500 000 illegal immigrants living in Arizona. And we simply cannot sustain it. It costs us a tremendous amount of money of course in health care in education and then on top of it all in incarceration. And the federal government doesn't reimburse us on any of these things.

Catholic schools in our Nation's education have been paramount in teaching the values that we as parents seek to instill in our children.

Strange as it may seem no amount of learning can cure stupidity and formal education positively fortifies it.

Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.

I've succeeded beyond my wildest dreams - financially and the amount of fun I have in my life.

I think L.A.'s terrific. You fly an hour and a half and you're in the mountains in three feet of powder. I also think it's a much better city if you're working as an actor. If you're not working and you don't see your dreams coming true there can be a lot of heartache.
