generations dignity welfare
One of the greatest dignities of humankind is that each successive generation is invested in the welfare of each new generation.

The best teacher in the world is someone who loves what he or she does, and just loves it in front of you.
strong real helping-others
When I was a boy I used to think that STRONG meant having big muscles, great physical power; but the longer I live, the more I realize that real strength has much more to do with what is NOT seen. Real strength has to do with helping others.
jobs children doctors
What's been important in my understanding of myself and others is the fact that each one of us is so much more than any one thing. A sick child is much more than his or her sickness. A person with a disability is much, much more than a handicap. A pediatrician is more than a medical doctor. You're MUCH more than your job description or your age or your income or your output.

We're all on a journey - each one of us. And if we can be sensitive to the person who happens to be our neighbor, that, to me, is the greatest challenge as well as the greatest pleasure.
mistake character perfect
What interests me so much about the characters of the Bible is that they make mistakes but God uses them anyway, in important ways. Nobody's perfect, but God can even use our imperfection.
important moments persons
One of the most important things a person can learn to do is to make something out of whatever he or she happens to have at the moment.

Vermont is a small state which makes an enormous difference.
dream our-world differences
It's our insides that make us who we are, that allow us to dream and wonder and feel for others. That's what's essential. That's what will always make the biggest difference in our world.
