Be fervent in God, and let nothing grieve you, whatever you encounter.
It's not always the easiest thing to be the center of so much spilled ink.
You can't lose confidence in yourself, or you've lost already. When you get knocked down, you've got to keep getting back up.
For me, my goal is to be able to impact as many people as possible for something good, for something right; to be able to leave a legacy of something bigger than myself - not for winning games, not for scoring touchdowns, but that Jesus Christ has changed my life. You can love God, and you can love people. There's more to this world than money, fame, and power. You can have an impact, no matter who you are; no matter what platform. No matter how big or small of a role model, there's someone watching you. There's a life that you can change. There's a life that you can impact.
Success comes in a lot of ways, but it doesn't come with money and it doesn't come with fame. It comes from having a meaning in your life, doing what you love and being passionate about what you do. That's having a life of success. When you have the ability to do what you love, love what you do and have the ability to impact people. That's having a life of success. That's what having a life of meaning is.
Talk about your blessings more than you talk about your burdens.
I don't know what my future holds, but I do know who holds my future.
For me, art is such a wide concept - anything can be art.
When I decided to become a doctor, I was very, very young, when my mother, her seventh child, became pregnant, and she was feeling terrible pain, and I could not know how to help her. And my mother died in front of my eyes, without knowing why, which diagnosis. So I decided to be a doctor.
No purer artist exists or has ever existed than a child freed to imagine.
I can’t say, "I eat whatever I want when I want," but I have come up with some great treats for myself that are healthy and satisfying.
