One of the secrets of life is to make stepping stones out of stumbling blocks.

- Jack Penn

Commitment ... is a binding, but happy, response to duty. It is at once peaceful yet compelling, for it obligates one to action. It is essential to the good life. It is doing what everyone can do.

- James M. Paramore

I would wish that people come to realize that we create our own realities, and all our emotions and thoughts are simply choices. If we were more accountable as human beings we would experience far, far less suffering and indifference in the world. It is considerably easier to place blame outside of ourselves than to live life from an accountable position.

- Robert Brincka

- John Homer Miller

True religion is the life we live, not the creed we profess, and some day will be recognized by quality and quantity, and not by brand.

When you take charge of your life, there is no longer need to ask permission of other people or society at large. When you ask permission, you give someone veto power over your life.

- Geoffrey F. Abert

A life without love in it is like a heap of ashes upon a deserted hearth, with the fire dead, the laughter stilled and the light extinguished.

In fact, we might go so far as to define this paradise as the place where art is indistinguishable from life, and where simplicity is codified as the best path for achieving happiness.

- Jim Nollman

Faith is positive, enriching life in the here and now. Doubt is negative, robbing life of glow and meaning. So though I do not understand immortality, I choose to believe.

- Webb B. Garrison
