Leah taught me that the greatest secret of life is that we find exactly what we're looking for. In spite of what happens to us, ultimately we decide whether our lives are good or bad, ugly or beautiful.
Richard Paul Evans
. . .and every native has a story of winter – stories that usually begin, You call this a storm? And grow in the telling like battle tales shared by graying war veterans. It’s a peculiar character flaw to those of us from cold climates that we feel superior to those who have the sense to live elsewhere.

Richard Paul Evans
We're all moons. Sometimes our dark sides overshadow our light.
Richard Paul Evans
Life is not a sprint. It was never meant to be. It is just a step of faith after another.
Richard Paul Evans
From our first babblings to our last word, we make but one statement, and that is our life.
Richard Paul Evans
It's almost as difficult to believe that someone with so many trials could harbor such hope, as that there are those with so much advantage who harbor such hopelessness.
Richard Paul Evans
People aren't wired to be alone. Even in the stressful population of prison, solitary confinement is still considered a cruel punishment.
Richard Paul Evans
I have come to believe that we do not walk alone in this life. There are others, fellow sojourners, whose journeys are interwoven with ours in seemingly random patterns, yet, in the end, have been carefully placed to reveal a remarkable tapestry. I believe God is the weaver at that loom.
Richard Paul Evans
I have a penchant for fresh notebooks and mechanical pencils. It seems every time I go to the store, I buy a new notebook. I have dozens of them just sitting around.
Richard Paul Evans
Wait and see is no easier now than it was as a child.
Richard Paul Evans
What a culture we live in, we are swimming in an ocean of information, and drowning in ignorance.
