Person
(page 9)
There are two great days in a person's life - the day we are born and the day we discover why.
Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own.
A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.
I moved from a mountain with one traffic light to New York City when I was 17, and it was an amazing, eye opening, creative adventure. I would walk through the streets of Manhattan looking up at these huge buildings, amazed that I didn't know a single person in any of them.
To the world you may be one person but to one person you may be the world.
Motherhood has made me a much better person. I see everything from a new perspective — with a sense of wonderment.
I wash my own dishes; I do my own laundry. I'm not a glamorous person at all, not at all.
A well adjusted person is one who makes the same mistake twice without getting nervous.
I know I may have done some bad things, but I'm not a bad person.
The average dog is a nicer person than the average person.
No matter how far a person can go the horizon is still way beyond you.

Avoid using cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs as alternatives to being an interesting 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.
People have to render judgment. In my case, I've said upfront openly, I've made mistakes at times. I've had to go to God for forgiveness. I've had to seek reconciliation. But I'm also a 68-year-old grandfather, and I think people have to measure who I am now and whether I'm a person they can trust.
I have never met a person in whom I did not see myself reflected.
There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they can help, and what they cannot.
Letters are among the most significant memorial a person can leave behind them.
Books are as useful to a stupid person as a mirror is useful to a blind person.
