I also believe that government has no business telling us how we should live our lives. I think our lifestyle choices should be left up to us. What we do in our private lives is none of the government's business. That position rules out the Republican Party for me.
Do more than is required. What is the distance between someone who achieves their goals consistently and those who spend their lives and careers merely following? The extra mile.

To write the lives of the great in separating them from their works necessarily ends by above all stressing their pettiness because it is in their work that they have put the best of themselves.
I've given it my all. I've done my best. Now I'm ready with my family to begin the next phase of our lives.
I think the best thing I can do is to be a distraction. A husband lives and breathes his work all day long. If he comes home to more table thumping how can the poor man ever relax?
There is only one thing for us to do and that is to do our level best right where we are every day of our lives To use our best judgment and then to trust the rest to that Power which holds the forces of the universe in his hands.
Goals provide the energy source that powers our lives. One of the best ways we can get the most from the energy we have is to focus it. That is what goals can do for us concentrate our energy.
If you die you're completely happy and your soul somewhere lives on. I'm not afraid of dying. Total peace after death becoming someone else is the best hope I've got.
Beauty like truth is relative to the time when one lives and to the individual who can grasp it. The expression of beauty is in direct ratio to the power of conception the artist has acquired.
When you put the interest of a kid on money instead of heart then you're destroying the beauty of our lives and our thought process which should be about how much responsibilities you carry as an athlete and a citizen.
The South is very beautiful but its beauty makes one sad because the lives that people live here and have lived here are so ugly.
No single man can be taken as a model for a perfect figure for no man lives on earth who is endowed with the whole of beauty.
Beauty is but the sensible image of the Infinite. Like truth and justice it lives within us like virtue and the moral law it is a companion of the soul.
During the 80s and 90s we all became consumed with ourselves. In the 21st century we've come back to simpler times. People are struggling economically and this has forced them to scale back the material aspects of their lives and realise the beauty of finding the simple joy in being with the people we love.
That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes.
The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.
Most of my arguments with musicians through the years have had more to do with their attitude about music or their attitude about their own lives or their personal responsibility. Music has never really been the big centerpiece of the fight.
