A sense of humor keen enough to show a man his own absurdities will keep him from the commission of all sins, or nearly all, save those worth committing.
I prefer home-schooling because you can work at your own pace and go towards more what you're interested in, whether it be history or geography or math.
We have to find our own purposes in life, which are not derived directly from our scientific history.
What we hold in our heads - our memory, our feelings, our thoughts, our sense of our own history - is the sum of our humanity.
History is representational, while time is abstract; both of these artifices may be found in museums, where they span everybody's own vacancy.
My proudest moment was probably when my oldest boy finished law school and went on to become an FBI agent. It was just beyond my imagination that - with my background - my own son would become an FBI agent.
I was really into classifieds for awhile. I'm a big negotiator. My father owned a car dealership when I was younger... it's just in my blood.
There are people who own cars and are getting free cell phones. A car helps one find a job, too. Where do you draw the line?
I think that every therapist that I know, including my dad and my sister, have their own issues. But that empathy is what makes them good at their job.
I know it was harder for me taking care of my dad during his cancer than it was going through my own. You feel more helpless as a caregiver.
We all labor against our own cure, for death is the cure of all diseases.
There's no quick or magical way to lose weight. You just have to do it the natural way - diet and exercise and stick to it - and be able to do it at your own pace.
Initially, it was the unpractical in fashion that brought me to design my own line. I felt that it was much more attractive to cut clothes with respect for the living, three-dimensional body rather than to cover the body with decorative ideas.
How do you design it so that people can form a space of their own, and feel quiet and contemplative?
In design as in life, smart can also mean wise, kind, inspiring - and cost-effective. And that has a charm all its own.
I want to design my own clothing line. I'm very into fashion. It's something I really want to focus on when swimming is over.
A girl child who is even a little bit educated is more conscious of family planning, health care and, in turn, her children's own education.
My parents told me that education was the path to success - and they showed me, taking me to Head Start while they were pursuing their own college degrees.
I have American in-laws, and I care about the environment. We don't use disposable diapers, which, of course, creates an environmental problem of our own.
Entire families are attending 'Son of God' together and sharing it with their own kids. Parents are using the film as a conversation starter to help bring the story of Jesus to life for their children.
In a world without the law of God, you have chaos, oppression, tyranny, and everyone doing what is right in their own eyes.
