“Set your goals high, and don't stop till you get there.”

“I think one of the things that I was struck by was that Joe has the financial wherewithal to go check into some expensive clinic, go into rehab and beat these addictions but he didn't. He sort of designed his own, you know, sort of rehabilitation at home. And anybody could do what he did. When he felt like having a cigarette after he ate, he would get up and walk. At cocktail hour when he used to have a drink and watch the news, he stopped watching the news. He couldn't. He couldn't watch the news and not have a drink and a cigarette. He would walk.”

It's hard to believe, but you would be hard-pressed to find a meaningful violence-prevention class in a federal or state penitentiary.

“With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.”

“One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity.”

“We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”

“Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art.”

“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.”

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up.”

“We must pay attention to the millions of children of this generation who are caught up in armed conflicts. How can we protect them from the worst consequences of war? And when hostilities cease, how can we take the war out of them? By eliminating landmines, controlling the sale of small arms, raising the age of recruitment ... are all essential measures. By reuniting children with their families and providing programs of physical and psychological rehabilitation.”
