All people—all lives—are either in a crisis, coming out of a crisis, or headed for a crisis.

I'm not saying don't do the work you got, but instead of this two hours of watching TV at the hotel lobby or this three hours of sitting under the pier and reading comic books or worrying about what you're doing ... what value do you have? Can you read? There are people out there who can't read - go read to them.

Well, that's why smart people get tripped up with worry and fear. Worry...fear...is just a misuse of the creative imagination that has been placed in each of us. Because we are smart and creative, we imagine all the things that could happen, that might happen, that will happen if this or that happens. See what I mean?

We're not trying to raise good kids. We're trying to raise kids who become great adults. That's a very different thing. We all know parents who had kids that when they turned 18 left the house and went nuts.
Andy Andrews
Your time on this earth is a gift to be used wisely. Don't squander your words or your thoughts. Consider that even the simplest actions you take for your lives matter beyond measure...and they matter forever.
Andy Andrews
When a king begins to act like a king, it is not long before someone else is king! Serving is a way we can place value on one another. A wise man is a server.
Andy Andrews
Everybody wants to make a difference, but nobody wants to be different. And you simply cannot have one without the other.
Andy Andrews
Even in the worst time of life, if you are still breathing, that means you are still alive. If you are still here, you haven't accomplished what is still to be accomplished. The most important part of your life is still ahead of you.
Andy Andrews
Every man of character will have that character questioned. Every man of honor and courage will be faced with unjust criticism, but never forget that unjust criticism has no impact whatsoever upon the truth. And the only sure way to avoid criticism is to do nothing and be nothing.
Andy Andrews
The very beating of your heart has meaning and purpose. Your actions have value far greater than silver or gold.
Andy Andrews
People tend to read books about a guy who goes back in time or a guy who is living under a pier.
Andy Andrews
To be great at whatever it is that you do, it's going to take some discipline to separate yourself from the average.
