I'm in a band. I have the basic idea, but when you surround yourself with really good players, why would I tell anyone what to play, because they're that good. They don't tell me what to play. They might encourage me, so that's what I do. I encourage them.

I think it's important to visit people in prison. And if you know anyone in prison, I would encourage you very much to visit them. They're a good audience! I always get good letters from prisoners.

Encourage anyone who is trying to improve mentally, physically, or spiritually.
If you eat good, you feel good. I would encourage every body else to do the same.
When an archer desires to shoot his arrows successfully, he first takes great pains over his posture and aligns himself accurately with his mark. It should be the same for you who are about to shoot the head of the wicked devil. Let us be concerned first for the good order of sensations and then for the good posture of inner thoughts.'
I enjoy a good meal, a good vacation, or a good movie, much as anyone else would.
I tell you, I would never sit in judgment of anyone as long as they're good folks. I would never judge their life, because it's important to know their feelings.
Physically, teachers are often alone in their own classrooms with no other adults for company. Psychologically, they never are.
