Martyrdom, sir, is what these people like: it is the only way in which a man can become famous without ability.

A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, and must empty ourselves. Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in his love than in your weakness.

Sacrifice that causes pain is no sacrifice at all. True sacrifice is joy-giving and uplifting.

I sacrifice in my love life and my social life, but those things will be there in three or four years. This is a really important time in my life. I can't just be the girl who sang 'I Kissed a Girl.' I have to leave a legacy.

It is for us the living ... to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far nobly advanced.

If you give what you do not need, it is not giving.
