"Christmas in Bethlehem. The ancient dream: a cold, clear night made brilliant by a glorious star, the smell of incense, shepherds and wise men falling to their knees in adoration of the sweet baby, the incarnation of perfect love."

"I used to think how lucky she was to have me, but now I realize that’s backwards. A spirit of gratitude yields patience, love, and forgiveness."

"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."

"What’s the opposite of start? Would the average person think stop or finish? The answer may reflect the difference between a winner and a loser."

"There’s no reason to not be humble, because as great as you may be, you can always be greater."

"Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor."

"Wisdom equals knowledge plus courage. You have to not only know what to do and when to do it, but you have to also be brave enough to follow through."

"Just when you thought you’d considered all the angles, life goes from a square to a cube. Love should also be 3D."

"How many seconds does it take to win second? As many as it takes to win first—if you don’t use them properly."

"When I compliment you, I compliment myself, because I am who I associate with."

"I want to state upfront, unequivocally and without doubt: I do not believe that any racial, ethnic or gender group has an advantage in sound judging. I do believe that every person has an equal opportunity to be a good and wise judge, regardless of their background or life experiences."

"Your personal brand should be like water: not only clear, but transparent to the public. People thirst for that, and they will drink you up."

"Love now, not later. Also, love later."

"Whether you live to be 50 or 100 makes no difference, if you made no difference in the world."

"I would argue that unless the two people are in love, all sex is bad sex, because why eat cotton candy when you can have edible clouds? Sure, it seems sweet at the time, but that’s just a carnival and carnal rush and wears off quickly. But love adds an extra dimension that takes an earthy thing like sex and makes it absolutely heavenly."

"Poor is the man who thinks money makes him wealthy. Love is the true treasure, and the more you give away, the more you have."

"Be memorable. Say something unforgettable. Be silent."

"I have not been that wise. Health I have taken for granted. Love I have demanded, perhaps too much and too often. As for money, I have only realized its true worth when I didn't have it."

"Better than learning how to speak a foreign language, is to start speaking the truth. But few people will listen, because they just don’t understand."

"To become one who believes two become one, you need love in your life."
