Sunday Inspiration: Loveliness
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.
—Roald Dahl

Sunday Inspiration: Entertainment
I used to be embarrassed because I was just a comic-book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers.

I feel that if you’re able to entertain people, you’re doing a good thing.
—Stan Lee
Sunday Inspiration: A Coach
A coach is someone who tells you what you don’t want to hear, who has you see what you don’t want to see, so you can be who you always knew you could be.
—Tom Landry
Sunday Inspiration: Responsibility
Let everyone sweep in front of his own door, and the whole world will be clean.
—Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
