- You gotta love livin’, baby, ’cause dyin’ is a pain in the ass.
- My favorite things in life don’t cost any money. It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.

- When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

- Storms make trees take deeper roots.
- My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.
