Yes, you can be a dreamer and a doer too, if you will remove one word from your vocabulary : impossible.

Tough times never last. Tough people do

What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?

Don't violate the law, but don't reject an idea because it's illegal. You might be able to get the law changed.

Anybody who succeeds is helping people. The secret to success is find a need and fill it find a hurt and heal it find a problem and solve it.

Spectacular achievement is always preceded by unspectacular preparation.

I was never close to Jerry Falwell because he had his ministry, I had mine. And we came from different theological training and from a different psychological education.

You never suffer from a money problem, you always suffer from an idea problem.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

If you're going to counsel people - and that's all my ministry is, it's a counseling ministry more than anything else - people have to believe that they can trust you and that they can listen to you, that you're going to try to help them and not just politically try to convert them to your views.

I feel that heterosexual marriage is the more excellent way, and it surely is approved holy by the Holy Bible, and it holds so many more possibilities: the possibilities of having children of both the mother and father, the male and the female.

I believe that Christians believe in salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by works. And we believe that if you're saved, Jesus becomes your savior. He makes a promise to you. You can trust his promises. You can bank on that word.

I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.

Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.

It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.

I built my church on Easter services, Christmas Eve services, and Norman Vincent Peale.
