Long ago made it a principle of my life to cultivate a positive frame of mind, to strive to project it and to share it with those I meet. It is a principle that has served me well.

The more I talk about things, the more I understand myself.

Principles are the most important thing to me. One of the things I think my dad taught me was there are people who accept the world they live in and there are people who change the world they live in. I don't accept my circumstances.

I just try to keep it simple, not let too many outside things influence me.

In quiet moments when you think about it, you recognize what is critically important in life and what isn't. Be wise and don't let good things crowd out those that are essential.

I think it's important to understand the concrete ways things work and to respect that. But some things shouldn't be explained, and you have to respect that, too.

We must always think about things, and we must think about things as they are, not as they are said to be.
