You have been created in order that you might make a difference. You have within you the power to change the world.

Everybody---every single body---makes a difference! But there is a choice that determines what kinda difference you will make. Most folks don't see how important they are...how much they matter to all of us. So they never choose to do somethin' special wif their lives. And not makin' a choice? That is a choice...a lost one.

Our nation's challenges do not stem from the church's inability to convince unbelievers to behave like believers. Our challenges stem from the church's inability to inspire believers to behave like believers.

Outsiders aren't about to take our faith seriously as long as they wonder if we do.

Regardless of whatever I do, I know what my purpose is: to make a difference in people's lives.

My father spent all those years building his brand. I happen to be his namesake, and I also happen to be the president of the largest Christian university. I think I have a responsibility to be a good citizen. The least I can do is to lend my name and whatever influence I have to make a difference politically.

I suppose that every one of us hopes secretly for immortality; to leave, I mean, a name behind him which will live forever in this world, whatever he may be doing, himself, in the next.

Out of profound gratitude for my adopted country, I can only say that I would like in this land to live and die, and while I live to help other people as much as possible, believing that only in service to other people can I possibly express my gratitude for all that America has done for me.

Priests focus on the spiritual. As a lay person I could show people how to be good Catholics in the world.

When I joined Bollywood, I too wanted decent and challenging roles but there were no offers. Directors and producers look at me as a woman who is willing to expose and that is the only reason they want to sign me.

I think we run into issues when our online brands are not rooted in who we are, and I think we need to have explicit discussions with ourselves about who we want to be, what we want to represent, and how we want to express that.

I felt like I was in a unique position, or I am in a unique position, to show the evangelical world in a way that I haven't seen on TV before. That's a world that I'm very familiar with.
