When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
It is better to risk starving to death then surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?
A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.
One of the most important things about leadership is that you have to have the kind of humility that will allow you to be coached.
We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.
If you give up at the first rejection or the first bad review, you will never make it in publishing.
Think about what people are doing on Facebook today. They're keeping up with their friends and family, but they're also building an image and identity for themselves, which in a sense is their brand. They're connecting with the audience that they want to connect to. It's almost a disadvantage if you're not on it now.

I hear the Sophie Giraffe is great for teething. Another thing I really love right now is the Moby Baby Carrier. To me, it seems like a natural way to hold the baby close to you. I also love the burp cloths, bibs, and swaddle blankets from Aden and Anais. Their stuff is organic and pure.
You know you've read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.
There's love for your parents, your family, your spouse, your partner, your friends, but the nature of the connection you have with your child, there's nothing like it. It has its own character and it's so serious and so powerful, and so it's a prism through which I see everything.
I am in you and you in me, mutual in divine love.
There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.
