Money can buy you knowledge, but not the wisdom to use it wisely.

It is you who must someday break through the protective polish of who you are, to become naked and powerful to who you can truly be.

I travel to be replenished with beauty, for travel makes the beauty of this world seem like a Christmas that never ends. I travel for the jolting, angelic act of seeking strangeness and newness and...

No one OWES you a THING. So don’t EXPECT it. You’re on your OWN.

Remember, it’s still a mystery to be an adult. If you knew it all before eighteen, you’d have nothing to look forward to.

Remember, Little Ones, everything is not important all the time. Only living is important all the time. Not things. Not money. Not more things and more endless money. Spend well the quality of your time....

Money. It fits around your neck like some permanent noose. always waiting for your next misstep.

When do you become a man? Becoming a man means doing the right thing even though it may be hard or difficult. Boys do what is easiest. A man does what is right, whether easy...

Be the same person- with or without money.

I gather the last remnants of the evening’s breeze, so cool and lazy within my arms, feeling it curl up like a small and innocent kitten.

There’s so much to learn. So much to enjoy. So terribly much to be curious about. Take your life and run with it. Make a habit of being alive. This much of anything, I have...

Who will you be, my Little Ones? Will you dance for the fires of your youth and run at midnight to water’s edge, diving into summer’s heat? Will you ride a wild mare to any...

The things you don’t know or understand are as important as your desire to know them. This is the relationship of man to mystery.

HungerYou are only here now, and then you are gone. So be hungry. Hunger toward beauty. Hunger toward love. Hunger towards the unimaginable and unthinkable.

Starting the Day— Another chance to be new again. How many of us still wish for that? To be your own sunrise. To awaken like a prayer -both solemn and joyful at still being alive.

You become a man when, in having children, you not only physically look after and protect them but also protect them with all the love and learning you have to give.

It’s a fool who thinks having a kid is a right, which is the biggest crock of fish heads I’ve ever heard.

Money may buy you the means to a happiness, but it cannot buy happiness itself.

While all the universe and my family are still sleeping, I will walk among the red and blue twinkle-lights of the living room, to sit and gaze upon the pretty white angel atop the tree...

Wake up. Be thankful. For whatever happens on this day, you are endlessly given the chance to start again-to be alive. And all of us should wish for that.

POLITENESS must carry the true weight of SINCERITY and INTEGRITY for it to be a true act of POLITENESS.

Enjoy what you are learning and doing. This is one of the hardest concepts in the entire world to understand. Harder yet to put into practice.

Just because you’re breathing, doesn’t mean you’re alive.

Reading teaches us the nuances of humanity. To find the beauty of what is moral and ethical in your own actions and discover the strange subtlety of what it is to question why you should...

You haven’t seen a thing until you’ve seen this man fight. My sword is sharp. My heart strong. My spirit ferocious – and I am going to live. Let the swords clash. Let the fight...

Be the greatest of who you were meant to be. Life goes on ferociously-with or without you. It is your choice. Truly and magnificently your choice.

Enjoy the RIDE NOW. You’ll be SUCCESSFUL later, however YOU define SUCCESS.

Why travel? To be changed, and to be changed again and again.

Money – it can buy you a moment of glee but not a lifetime of happiness.

Living isn’t always red bows and birthday balloons.

So curious you must be. Like little calves poking their heads through the fence with big eyes and a headful of curiosity.

You become a man when you marry not just for love but to be a partner with your wife. To be the best man you can be with her, and when you fall short, to...

Starting the day – Another chance to be new again.How many of us still wish for that?To be your own sunrise.To awaken like a prayer – both solemn and joyful at still being alive.

So, if the truest currency of life is time, then how do you get more time? Because if more is merrier, than having more time should make us more happier. Right? Therefore, all we have...

Only you can know the difference between your wants and your needs, and your sacrifice of your life’s time to both.

Don’t have kids until you’re ready. And when you do have them, have them all the way. They aren’t like some Cadillac that you can turn back into the dealership after three years.

Your time is your time. Be awake to it. It’s hard work to be wisely alive.

As an adult, be child-like as you learn but not child-ish as you live.

I travel for the jolting, angelic act of seeking strangeness and newness and profoundness.

Money can buy you everything to fill your time but it cannot buy time itself. And things are definitely not time.

You might want more time in your life to attempt the things you like to do, and not just perform the things you have to do.

Rain. Tumble, bumble and, fall on me. Any old day, any old way. Come for a visit, or come for a stay. Rain, rain, don’t go away.

As I see it, you GET married – but you MAKE a marriage.

Kids. They’re not tin cans or sheetrock. They’re laughing machines. Wind them up and watch them go.

The trick to not growing old is to: Stay curious. Keep your teeth. Stay hopeful. Do everything gracefully, yet kick when you have to.

All you have to do to quickly become OLD is to slowly GIVE UP being ALIVE.

It’s a heck of a responsibility to look after a spirit. So give kids the best of who you are. That’s the most you can ever do.

But more importantly in my book of life, it’s what you can’t buy with money that is often more important than what you can buy.

My God, what a sensation to be an atom in the scheme of such grandiosity. The allurement, the jazz, and the physics of it all . . .

I travel because I become uncomfortable being too comfortable.
