God made the world so you tear your body down working in the day; you recreate it resting at night.

I've always had hope in young people and I've always worked with them.
I don't believe in hurting anybody's feelings, but yet I think that if the truth is going to hurt you, just let it hurt.
I say I've lived every day and tried to do what I can in my way of thinking and following the philosophy and the teachings of Christ to do unto others as you desire they do unto you, and help those who can't help themselves. And I let heaven and hell take care of themselves; that's my philosophy.
