A man is defined by his character, not his bank account.

Money and a profession may buy youfreedom from attachments and the abilityto choose your own path, but it can neverbuy you the deep relationships with God,your spouse, or your children.

The truth being distasteful makes it no less true.

You cannot meet in the middle with the devil.

You cannot excuse your way out of responsibility for your own actions.

We must take responsibility for our own actions, but we cannot take responsibility for the actions, either good or bad, of others.

A man with all the money in the world but a house filled with animosity, is far worse off than a man with a bare cupboard but a house filled with love.

You cannot lie and then expect the truth to defend you.

Temptation comes to everyone, the difference is between those who fight it, and those who make excuses to give in to it.
