Mitch Albom
Sticking with your family is what makes it a family.

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom
Have you ever really had a teacher? One who saw you as a raw but precious thing, a jewel that, with wisdom, could be polished to a proud shine?
Mitch Albom
All I was afraid of is saying good-bye.
Mitch Albom
Silence was his escape, but silence is rarely a refuge.
Mitch Albom
There is a big confusion in this country over what we want verses what we need...you need food. You want a chocolate sundae.
Mitch Albom
People are only mean when they're threatened, and that's what our culture does. That's what our economy does.
Mitch Albom
The secret to happiness...be satisfied and be grateful.
