“The society of girls is a very delightful thing, Copperfield. It's not professional, but it's very delightful.”

“Many homicidal lunatics are very quiet, unassuming people. Delightful fellows.”

“The very first law in advertising is to avoid the concrete promise and cultivate the delightfully vague.”

“Christ [is] the very essence of all delights and pleasures, the very soul and substance of them. As all the rivers are gathered into the ocean, which is congregation or meeting-place of all waters in the world: so Christ is that ocean in which all true delights and pleasures meet. . . .”

“Remember to delight yourself first, then others can be truly delighted."This was my mantra when I published my first book in 1990, and still holds true. When we focus on the song of our soul and heart, then others will be touched similarly. Sometimes people wonder or worry whether people will like or approve of their creative expression. It's none of your business. It's your business to stay present and focused for the work of your deepest dreams. It might look crooked or strange, or be very odd-but if it delights you, then it is yours, and will find it's way into other hearts.”

“It's a delight to trust somebody so completely.”
