I went and threw myself across my daughter’s bed, and I cried and I cried and I cried and I cried, because I felt like that I had been so faithful and that there was no financial breakthrough for us. You ever have one of those days where you are tired of hearing everybody else’s testimony?

Unfortunately, those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.”
“He had the unlucky capacity many men have of seeing and believing in the possibility of
