The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.
Take the high road; it's far less crowded.
Michelle Obama is somebody who really wants to take the high road.
In fact you've got your hands tied behind your back when somebody chooses to take a low road in to you, there is nothing you can do about it, and so you just live with it and move on.
Having the courage to say no when all your friends are saying yes is one of the most difficult things you'll ever have to do. Doing it, however, is one of the biggest charges you can ever make to your personal battery. I call this 'won't power.'
Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.
Truth is the most bitter to accept, swallow and digest it. The moment you speak truth, you lose your popularity. But I don't care.
I'm not a guy who believes in revenge.
The best manner of avenging ourselves is by not resembling him who has injured us.
I see them turn around to get a second look. You hear a lot of people laugh at you. So what? I used to get upset about it, but not anymore. You know, laugh all you can.
It's funny, I do think I've been somewhat overlooked, but I've always viewed that as a challenge. Everyone else seems to get more upset about it than I do.
It is in life as it is in ways, the shortest way is commonly the foulest, and surely the fairer way is not much about.
I would happily help to turn the stone being thrown at me into a boomerang.
When you are committed to doing what’s right, you are sowing seeds for God’s blessings. You will never go wrong by taking the high road and doing more that is required.
You know, it's a really adult thing, for some people, to choose to not be with the one that you love.
Those people who have done me wrong—well, I try to outlive them.
If someone doesn't want me working their club, they're not going to hear from me again. I'm not going to fight or complain about it. I'd rather go someplace else.
I never engage negatively with reviewers. If someone says something that enrages me, I do what I do on stage. I make a joke about myself and move on. Sometimes people say things that are manifestly wrong or even apparently malicious. That's fine, too. It's a response.
The president took the advice of my East Texas grandmother: If you can skin a cat without getting the room all bloody, why not do it that way?
If I was going to be a little boy about it, I'd go into hiding for one or two years. But if I was going to be a man about it, it'd be 20 or 30 years.
I don't give players a chance to hit me.
It takes so much strength to say to your ego, 'You know what? You're going to keep me lonely, so I have to ignore you.'
I'm a lock-up defender and I believe strongly in my defense, so I don't need to take cheap shots at guys to get an edge.
The price tag for principles is sometimes much higher than what’s on the table in terms of dollars and cents.
When you do something moral and upright and wander off by yourself, well, everyone doesn't always follow you, do they, right? You pat yourself on your sanctimonious back but it doesn't mean the crowd rewards you for doing what you think is right.
