Our life is what our thoughts make it. A man will find that as he alters his thoughts toward things and other people, things and other people will alter towards him.
Most people believe, more or less, that the value of a human life is the same, irrespective of where on the planet it happens to find itself. But, of course, not every life has the same value for us.

There is so many things to do in life rather than playing tennis, so I'm sure I will find something. I just need a bit of time to kind of settle down.
I find that when I put my spiritual life first, the rest of my life is easy. When I put my career first, that's when I have problems.
Life's like a ball game. You gotta take a swing at whatever comes along before you wake up and find out it's the ninth inning.
