"We need to teach our children to want more and to expect more, of themselves, and others. Men need to know there is more to being a man, than just being a male, and women need to know that they do not have to accept anything less than the knight of their dreams."

"There is no such thing as quality time without quantity time. The idea that you could spend one hour a night with your children and have the same effect on them as a stay at home parent spending 12‐16 hours a day with them is pure nonsense.The same logic works for your marriage."

"If you keep finding yourself in a deeper hole, no matter what you try to do to improve your life, you need to do two things. First, stop digging. Clearly the same level of thinking that put you in the hole cannot help you escape. Secondly, seek out help from a friend who has what you want, a mentor with a vested interest in your future, or a professional who understands what you are going through."

"You don’t need me or some actor, musician, or anyone else to convince you. It starts with you choosing to believe that you can do anything you want… even write a haiku."

"Passion isn’t everything, but everything is better with passion, especially if you have ADHD. I hope that you all find that passion about something or someone. Never stop looking for it. Once you find it, fight for it with every breath."

"As much fun as you can have online, always value a real friendship over something virtual. Do yourself a favor and phone, text, or message someone you haven’t seen in six months and ask if they are available for coffee or something. Challenge yourself to do this every month. Turn it into a habit and do it for the restof your life."

"Nobody should live life without knowing someone they would give theirs for."

"Don’t be one of those people who say they don’t need someone to love. Seek love out! It should be the most important goal in your life aside from your relationship with a higher power, if you believe in one."

"Love is not easy, but it is worth it."

"Finding someone who captivates you like this will help you to open up so you can captivate others. Do not link this solely to physical beauty. It might just as easily be someone’s laugh, their confidence, or a voice on the telephone."
