I've got great faith in the essential fairness and decency - you may say goodness - of the human being.
Norman Vincent Peale

Norman Vincent Peale
Americans are so tense and keyed up that it is impossible even to put them to sleep with a sermon.
Norman Vincent Peale
Whatever you are doing in the game of life, give it all you've got
Norman Vincent Peale

Norman Vincent Peale
