If you want to have a good life, you should focus on your family, on your business, on your dog, on your fun, and you'll have a good life.

No matter how much we love our family and friends, a part of us needs the occasional moment of solitude as a plant needs water. It is the inmost core of each of us that, that part which nobody can define but which we all recognize because it never changes.

I converted to Catholicism at age 35, after being raised as a Congregationalist in a New England Yankee family.
