“An important part of building a new culture was allowing people to complain about their past. At first, the more they complained, the worse the past would seem.

And if there is anything of power in the Salvation Army, it is because God has had all the adoration of my heart, all the power of my will, and all the influence of my life.”
“Success in show business depends on your ability to make and keep friends.”
