“It is impossible to escape the impression that people commonly use false standards of measurement — that they seek power, success and wealth for themselves and admire them in others, and that they underestimate what is of true value in life.”
“Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.”
“The True measure of a person’s success is to be a person of value.’ I knew people of value, people who kept their promises, people who were kind, people who were loyal.”
“I believe that anyone can be successful in life, regardless of natural talent or the environment within which we live. This is not based on measuring success by human competitiveness for wealth, possessions, influence, and fame, but adhering to God's standards of truth, justice, humility, service, compassion, forgiveness, and love.”
“Never underestimate the potential for human stupidity when wealth and power are at stake.”
“Few kids seek to learn a skill specifically designed to impress people unless they feel less than impressive themselves.”
