“A man does not have to be an angel in order to be saint.” — Albert Schweitzer Quote

A man does not have to be an angel in order to be saint.

Let me give you a definition of ethics: It is good to maintain and further life it is bad to damage and destroy life.

One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity.

The tragedy of life is what dies inside a man while he lives.

Wherever a man turns he can find someone who needs him.

I was a complete brat but was an angel with my mother. I used to be perfectly behaved, and my mother used to be like... 'Really, are you badly behaved with other people?' I was like, 'No, not at all.' But the minute she used to leave the room, I was a brat.

I never said I was an angel. Nor am I innocent or holy like the Virgin Mary. What I am is natural and serious and as sensitive as an open nerve on an ice cube.

A lot of people do records, and they get hit records, but we were blessed with a lot of monsters. 'Oh Carolina' was a very monstrous record in 1993; so was 'Boombastic,' 'Angel' and 'It Wasn't Me.'

Grandma Holly told me at three years old that I had a voice of an angel, and I just never stopped singing.
