Quotes from the show:
"The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered "Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived."
"We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons."
-Jim Rohn
"I want success with my family or not at all."
-Brian Buffini
"You can have anything you want but you can't have everything."
-Oprah Winfrey
"If you're going downhill, you're going the wrong way."
-John Maxwell
"An investment in your-self pays the best dividends."
-Ben Franklin
"If you think education is expensive, try ignorance."
-Ben Franklin
"Giving is surprisingly rewarding."
