Charles R. Swindoll

I know of nothing more valuable, when it comes to the all-important virtue of authenticity, than simply being who you are.

A family is a place where principles are hammered and honed on the anvil of everyday living.

I have no interest in returning to yesteryear. I love the conveniences and delights of today's time. I wouldn't go back if I could.

Before I die, I will preach to the Muslims in the Arab world. I will preach in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. I will preach in Tehran. I will do it under the umbrella of God. And see its impact.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.
