I really love being alive. I love my family and my work. I love the opportunity I have to do things. That's what happiness is.

• Life is the power that's greater than I can ever comprehend. The way life runs through everything, even the tiniest elements of nature - that makes me humble.
• I truly believe that we have infinite levels of power that we don't even know are available to us.
• Medical science has proven time and again that when the resources are provided, great progress in the treatment, cure, and prevention of disease can occur.
• In my 50s I'll be dancing at my children's weddings.
• But the key to our marriage is the capacity to give each other a break. And to realize that it's not how our similarities work together it's how our differences work together.
• I believe that the majority of times the scale tilts toward the good. It's this amazing thing that rolls on and if we get in the flow of it, that's God. And if we fight it, if we swim the other way, we're swimming away from the purest expression of this life.
• I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for perfection is God's business.
• What other people think about me is not my business.
• I'm a dad, I'm a husband, I'm an activist, I'm a writer and I'm just a student of the world.
• I always felt that I came up short in the education department, but I've come to the conclusion that we all get an education.
