Gratitude

When someone close to you dies, it is not the big moments you remember, but small moments — the seemingly insignificant way Dave wheezed slightly when he laughed hard, or how he loved the way the earth smelled in the fall. If you can notice these moments, breathe them in, even for a second, then you have achieved success.

When someone close to you dies, it is not the big moments you remember, but small moments. If you can notice these moments, breathe them in, even for a second, on your way to the courtroom, or the office, then you have achieved success.

Why take the trip if you're not going to enjoy the ride?

Wealth isn't measured in bling and Bentleys. It's measured in the richness of the human spirit. It's measured not in what we take from this world, but what we give to it.

College is something you complete. Life is something you experience. So don't worry about your grade, or your job, or your career. Here is the best piece of advice I can give you: Every day, once a day, give yourself a present.

Love is the only thing that the more you give away, the more you have.

At the end of your life, you will never regret not having passed one more test, not winning one more verdict, or closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband, a friend, or a parent.

Giving is not something that should be saved for the sweet by and by. It should be a lifelong practice.

A billion dollars — what's that? It's a backyard barbecue to the Creator of the universe. So give it away. All of it.

The road to success can be much more fun than success itself. Define and enjoy many small successes along the way.

To whom much is given, much is expected.

No exercise is better for the human heart than reaching down and lifting up another person.
