Until today, it really pissed me off that I'd become this totally centered Zen Master, and nobody had noticed. Still, i'm doing the little FAX thing. I write little HAIKU things and FAX them around to everyone. When i pass people in the hall at work,...
I once read that love is like a rose: we fixate on the blossom, but it's the thorny stem that keeps it alive and aloft. I think marriage is like that. Like my father said, the things of greatest value are the things we fight for. And in the end, if w...
The most important thing about skating is that it teaches you to do the things you should do before you do the things you want to do.
There are a lot of things that go into creating success. I don't like to do just the things I like to do. I like to do things that cause the company to succeed. I don't spend a lot of time doing my favorite activities.
Better to forget, better to let go of the bitterness. I say bitterness is only good in medicine, or if you fry bitter gourd with egg, then it's dlicious. I told Lan-Lan many times, we have only one life, it's important to kua kwee, to look spaciously...

People have a right to be a Democrat. People have a right to be wrong. I know they're the same thing.
It may be an old cliche, but I think true love will last; it has no end. But finding the right person is a very difficult thing.
If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.
I do small things. I try to do good things every day.
Do well the little things now; so shall great things come to thee by and by asking to be done.
