"When you make a mistake and the devil comes and tells you 'You're no good,' you don't have to take on the guilt and condemnation he wants to put on you. No!

In much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots of a tree."

"You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight."
