“Full hearts often lead to full eyes. I look around and I see my 8 year old playing with Legos, wanting me to know who is who and what is what; my 3 year old sits on my shoulders and sings The Lumineers with me; and my wife is asleep on the couch after a long weekend helping to lead a ladies retreat. I may have weaknesses, frustrations, and experienced loss, but I feel overwhelmingly blessed.”

“Personal expression has become a form of entertainment, and that’s very sad. You used to have to earn your position to have a microphone in your mouth.

- Vincent Kartheiser, who plays Pete Campbell on Mad Men

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
