Person
(page 10)
Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
When we love anyone with our whole hearts, life begins when we are with that person; it is only in their company that we are really and truly alive.
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.
It makes little difference how many university courses or degrees a person may own. If he cannot use words to move an idea from one point to another, his education is incomplete.
I am not a passive person, but I chose to fall into a more submissive role in our relationship because I wanted to do everything in my power to make my marriage and family work.
A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.
Anybody can become angry — that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way — that is not within everybody's power and is not easy.
I grew up in the South under segregation. So, I know what terrorism feels like — when your father could be taken out in the middle of the night and lynched just because he didn't look like he was in an obeying frame of mind when a white person said something he must do. I mean, that's terrorism, too.

Being a father has been, without a doubt, my greatest source of achievement, pride and inspiration. Fatherhood has taught me about unconditional love, reinforced the importance of giving back and taught me how to be a better person.
No matter how far a person can go the horizon is still way beyond you.
My parents are very modern. My father is a cosmopolitan person. He always supported the fact that I will be an actress. There is nothing else I would do rather than being an actor.
All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today.
The greatest magnifying glasses in the world are a man's own eyes when they look upon his own person.
It's easy to see why dog rescue is a mushrooming culture. Turning a troubled person's life around is difficult, but rescuers with commitment and time and a few dollars can radically alter the fate of a dog. And there are millions of dogs — nearly 10 million in the shelter system, many others mistreated in private homes — in need of rescuing.
I'm a shy person, so I get really nervous going into interviews.
A codependent person is one who has let another person's behavior affect him or her and who is obsessed with controlling that person's behavior.
There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they can help, and what they cannot.
Most people never really sat down and got to know a homeless person, but every homeless person is just a real person that was created by God and it is the same kind of different as us; they just have a different story.
