I always see where I didn't do things the right way. I only see the heavy lifting. That's a bit of my wisdom if you want to call it that.

I spend around two and half hours on the track every day running and another 2 hours in the weight room lifting weights with my strength coach.

The superior man is the providence of the inferior. He is eyes for the blind strength for the weak and a shield for the defenseless. He stands erect by bending above the fallen. He rises by lifting others.

I like sports and I enjoy playing basketball and lifting weights.

The waltz can be sad and at the same time uplifting. You have to see life from both sides and the waltz encapsulates that. If you're in my audience you give yourself to me and the waltz will grab you.

Another mode of accumulating power arises from lifting a weight and then allowing it to fall.

In my books and in romance as a genre there is a positive uplifting feeling that leaves the reader with a sense of encouragement and hope for a brighter future - or a brighter present.

Constant repetition of tongue-twisters was like lifting weights for me but patience and persistence have paid off.

Ah the power of two. There's nothing quite like it. Especially when it comes to paying utility bills parenting cooking elaborate meals purchasing a grown-up bed jumping rope and lifting heavy machinery. The world favours pairs. Who wants to waste the wood building an ark for singletons?

Sometimes before we make a record I go back and listen to a few. It's equally humbling and uplifting.
