I think God gave every one of us a cell phone, we just dropped it.
Almost every successful person begins with two beliefs: the future can be better than the present, and I have the power to make it so.
If there is a series of attacks like that or, God forbid, if ISIS is really sending soldiers across Europe and maybe across the world for a barrage of these things, then the political climate is revolutionized here. And maybe the [Donald] Trump speech will look like a precursor to a climate that we're all about to walk into.
Donald Trump is so egregious in the way he talks about women, the way he allegedly treated women.
The key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not a divine spark. It's not I. Q. , a generally bad predictor of success, even in realms like chess. Instead, it's deliberate practice. Top performers spend more hours (many more hours) rigorously practicing their craft.
I do not believe that anything like what Donald Trump just proposed is going to get through Congress. Those deductions have a lot of defenders. The idea that they're going to completely explode the deficit is just a party killer for the Republican parties.
It is especially painful when narcissists suffer memory loss because they are losing parts of the person they love most.
We have two hundred languages in Europe. Two hundred languages! Count them! I know you won't!
Christianity is called the religion of pity.
Loving this country requires more than singing its praises or avoiding uncomfortable truths. It requires the occasional disruption, the willingness to speak out for what's right, and shake up the status quo.
Christianity isn't meant to simply be believed; it's meant to be lived, shared, eaten, spoken, and enacted in the presence of other people.
