In a school where everyone is famous or rich or whatever you have a culture 'What does your dad do?' 'What does your mom do?'

I didn't know my dad for a long time. My dad was on drugs and my dad was at the VA Hospital my dad was off in his own world selling drugs or using them or there would be crack heads in the house or whatever it would be.

I'm more comfortable with whatever's wrong with me than my father was whenever he felt he failed or didn't measure up to the standard he set.

I kept my babies fed. I could have dumped them but I didn't. I decided that whatever trip I was on they were going with me. You're looking at a real daddy.

If we can't have the courage to tell our constituents hey we've got to cut back then if we can point to something and say I would like to vote for more benefits for you but this balanced budget amendment or statutory spending cap or whatever the device is is preventing me from doing it.

Whatever enlarges hope will also exalt courage.

Everybody even me sometimes had to compromise on something doing things we know to be wrong and this happens doing whatever job in the world. But a singer must have the courage of saying no.

Keep courage. Whatever you do do not feel sorry for yourself. You will win in a great age of opportunity.

When we have done our best we can as a united people take whatever may befall with calm courage and confidence that this old nation will survive and if death should come to many of us death is not the end.

To have courage for whatever comes in life - everything lies in that.
