To do my duty in that state of life unto which it shall please God to call me.

There is one thing which gives radiance to everything. It is the idea of something around the corner.

The world stands aside to let anyone pass who knows where he is going.

If you love someone, let them go. If they return to you, it was meant to be. If they don't, their love was never yours to begin with.

Each man is his own absolute lawgiver and dispenser of glory or gloom to himself, the maker of his life, his reward, his punishment.

Some one once said to me, 'Reverend Schuller, I hope you live to see all your dreams fulfilled.' I replied, T hope not, because if I live and all my dreams are fulfilled, I'm dead.' It's unfulfilled dreams that keep you alive.

The more I come to recognize my story's place in God's grander Story, my once-bewildered questions are turning to psalms of thanksgiving at the wonder that I have been included in what He is doing.

I remember the first time I saw the 'Sugarhill Gang' on Soul Train. I was 11 or 12. I was like, 'What's going on? How did those guys get on national TV?' And then, when I was a little older, a rapper from the neighborhood got a record deal. I was shocked.

When I moved to New York I started to do a lot of TV commercials. It just kind of naturally evolved from still photography to commercials.

Regardless of Bill Clinton's politics or personal life, he grew up in obscurity and was elected to the presidency - twice. Don't take that away from him, because then you take it away from every other kid in America sitting out there in a school bus with a big dream.

My God, what do we want? What does any human being want?

God is a great God! I want to encourage you to expect great things from Him.
