To enjoy the glow of good health, you must exercise.
You were made perfectly to be loved — and surely I have loved you, in the idea of you, my whole life long.
All the money in the world can't buy you back good health.
Jesus isn't lettin' you off the hook. The Scriptures don't let you off the hook so easily... When people say, you know, 'Good teacher', 'Prophet', 'Really nice guy' ... this is not how Jesus thought of Himself.
Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.
Growth is painful. Change is painful. But, nothing is as painful as staying stuck where you do not belong.

Academic achievement was something I'd always sought as a form of reward. Good grades pleased my parents, good grades pleased my teachers; you got them in order to sew up approval.
There's a silly notion that failure's not an option at NASA. Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.
No woman in my time will be prime minister or chancellor or foreign secretary — not the top jobs. Anyway, I wouldn't want to be prime minister; you have to give yourself 100 percent.
