It requires more strength to be gentle so it's the everyday encounters of life that I think we've prepared children for and prepared them to be good to other people and to consider other people.
God is waiting eagerly to respond with new strength to each little act of self-control small disciplines of prayer feeble searching after him. And his children shall be filled if they will only hunger and thirst after what he offers.
Absolutely the worst thing about this job is the travel and being away from family. I have a wife and three wonderful children the kids are all active in sports and it's very difficult to up and leave and miss them growing up.
I also developed an interest in sports and played in informal games at a nearby school yard where the neighborhood children met to play touch football baseball basketball and occasionally ice hockey.
They wanted me to play more sports because they were acutely sensitive to their children being one hundred percent American and they believed that all Americans played sports and loved sports.
I would never encourage my children to be athletes - first because my children are not athletes and second because there are so many people pushing to get to the top in sports that 100 people are crushed for each one who breaks through. This is unfortunate.
I didn't go to normal children school. I went to sports school when I was 8. So I studied martial arts.
The plays and sports of children are as salutary to them as labor and work are to grown persons.
For truly it is to be noted that children's plays are not sports and should be deemed as their most serious actions.
I want to rip out his heart and feed it to Lennox Lewis. I want to kill people. I want to rip their stomachs out and eat their children.
