“If you recall the happiest moments in your life, they are all from when you were doing something for somebody else.”

“Either define the moment or the moment will define you.”

“Do your little bit of good where you are; its those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.”

“Differences are not intended to separate, to alienate. We are different precisely in order to realize our need of one another.”

“There comes a point where we need to stop just pulling people out of the river. We need to go upstream and find out why they're falling in.”

“If you want peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.”

“We are made for goodness. We are made for love. We are made for friendliness. We are made for togetherness. We are made for all of the beautiful things that you and I know. We are made to tell the world that there are no outsiders. All are welcome: black, white, red, yellow, rich, poor, educated, not educated, male, female, gay, straight, all, all, all. We all belong to this family, this human family, God's family.”
