“Know what you value, be willing to take a risk, and lead from the heart - lead from what you believe in.”
“There must be no compromise with slavery - none whatever. Nothing is gained, everything is lost, by subordinating principle to expedience.”
“There's only one thing in life for a woman; it's to be a mother... A woman artist must be... capable of making primary sacrifices.”
“I think we're the only jokeless show on television. I mean really, we have no setups and no punch lines. It's not a joke show. There are funny lines and funny moments but again the comedy is born of the human experience and awkward pauses are a great part of what it is to be human.”
“God does not lead all His servants by one road, nor in one way, nor at one time; for God is in all things; and that man is not serving God aright, who can only serve Him in his own self-chosen way.”
“There is a difference between justice and consideration in one's relations to one's fellow men. It is the function of justice not to do wrong to one's fellow men of considerateness, not to wound their feelings.”
“None of it gets to be 'old stuff', for it is Christ in print, the Living Word. We wouldn't think of rising in the morning without a facewash, but we often neglect that purgative cleansing of the Word of the Lord. It wakes us up to our responsibility”
