When God designs to forgive us he changes our hearts and turns us to obedience by His Spirit.

Every act of creation is first an act of destruction.

If you're a marketer who doesn't know how to invent, design, influence, adapt, and ultimately discard products, then you're no longer a marketer. You're deadwood.

The future will look futuristic only because we will be trying to make it look futuristic.

Never forget: This very moment, we can change our lives. There never was a moment, and never will be, when we are without the power to alter our destiny.
