“Learn the lessons of history. Don't let how you feel about your tenure at your organization drive you to make poor investment decisions that could potentially derail a successful retirement.”

“I feel that one of the most important lessons that can be learned is that what we "see" may be different than what is actually in front of us.”

“I believe that the biggest mistake that most people make when it comes to their retirement is they do not plan for it.

It may not be exactly where you wanted to get to, but you certainly get somewhere.”

“Even in the era of AIDS, sex raises no unique moral issues at all. Decisions about sex may involve considerations about honesty, concern for others, prudence, and so on, but there is nothing special about sex in this respect, for the same could be said of decisions about driving a car. (In fact, the moral issues raised by driving a car, both from an environmental and from a safety point of view, are much more serious than those raised by sex.)”

“In life, you have to take lots of decisions and if you don't take decisions you would never do anything because you would spend all your time choosing between things you could do.”

“Vision beyond your resources? Don't let fear dictate your decisions. If your vision is God-given, it will most definitely be beyond your ability and beyond your resources. The God who gives the vision is the same God who makes provision.”

“You can have all the sympathy in the world," she said, "just don't feel like you have to wrap your life around it.”
