A Quote by Gordon B. Hinckley

Other than that, I understand you're not going to please everybody.
Look at the word responsibility-"response-ability"-the ability to choose your response. Highly proactive people recognize that responsibility.

I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality.

I'm going to have a project-based life rather than a job-based life.
I find it interesting that authors of fantasy and science fiction novels are rarely asked if their books are based on their personal experiences, because all writing is based on personal experience. I may not have gone on an epic quest through a haunted forest, but the feelings in my books are often based on feelings I've had. Real-life events, in fantasy and science fiction, can take on metaphorical significance that they can't in a so-called realistic novel.
