Don't be what you're told to be. Follow your own path. Be your own person. Don't get held down by everyone else.
A person should not be elected because of his faith nor should he be rejected because of his faith.
Each person enters the world called.
I'm trying to keep my personal life personal. It's very hard for me because I'm a very honest person.
To think you know what is best for another person is an industrial-strength ego trip.
I don't know how to not become every person I walk by.
I'm just not that fascinating a person to have had all those lives that I've written about.
To remain alone did not seem to me a terrible fate, no worse than being falsely joined to another person.
I wouldn't have thought of myself as a person who could guide anybody and then it turned out that I can.

Some people act as if there were a penalty for carrying concealed troubles. They exhibit them at every opportunity, begging for sympathy, even condescending to accept pity. Such persons never realize that the very ones to whom they are complaining are often struggling under a burden greater than their own.
As it is for a person, so it is for a company: having a sense of purpose is invigorating and motivating.
