“Your life is like a book. The title page is your name, the preface your introductions to the world. The pages are a daily record of your efforts, trials, pleasures, discouragements, and achievements. Day by day your thoughts and acts are being inscribed in your book of life. Hour by hour, the record is being made that must stand for all time. Once the word 'finish' must be written, let it then be said of your book that it is a record of noble purpose, generous service, and work well-done.”

“Some crimes get honor and renown by being committed with more pomp, by a greater number, and in a higher degree of wickedness thanothers.

I made that decision during spring training in 1973, asking Jesus to come into my heart as Lord and Savior.”
