The love of heaven must drive out the inordinate love of what is earthly.

How important is the heart! It is there that character is formed. It alone holds the secrets of true success.

It is the heart that makes a man rich. He is rich according to what he is, not according to what he has.

Lord, I want to be up in my heart.

Of course, 'I Will Always Love You' is the biggest song so far in my career. I'm famous for several, but that one has been recorded by more people and made me more money, I think, than all of them. But that song did come from a true and deep place in my heart.

All men have become what they are, because of their dominating thoughts and desires.

RICHES begin in the form of THOUGHT!

First. Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire.

Every man who has accumulated a great fortune, has recognized the existence of this stream of life. It consists of one's thinking process. The positive emotions of thought form the side of the stream which carries one to fortune. The negative emotions form the side which carries one down to poverty.

Second: repeat this program night and morning until you can see (in your imagination) the money you intend to accumulate.

Anyone can give away something expensive, but only those who understand sacrifice can give away something valuable.

I was beginning to learn from my grandfather that love covers a multitude of sins and that I was more important to him than his stuff.
