88
It’s degrading or insulting to say somebody is a good person or has a soul.

I like smart women.
119

Angel Cabrera
129

Spirituality is something that makes you who you are on and off the field. It’s something you try and live by. The way you play is one thing, but the way you act is a little different. You’re just trying to be a good person, the best you can be, on and off the field.
134
Whether a person is straight or gay, Republican, Democrat, good person, not a good person, they’re all welcome, because to me, church is a place you’re supposed to get healed and whole and loved.

I think generally I’m a pretty good person if I had to grade myself. Or toot my own horn.
136
People assume when they come into a church and see a person up there speaking, ‘That person must be a good person.’ My challenge through the years has been believing that: ‘I guess I must be a really good person.’ I struggle with it. It just helps me to keep that confessional posture.
137
A child is your legacy. What better thing can you do in life than put a really good person in the world who’s going to make it a better place?
Alexis Stewart
138
I’m just here to say, ‘Just be a good person, and really respect others.’
139

140
Freud taught us that it wasn’t God that imposed judgment on us and made us feel guilty when we stepped out of line.

If you do what you know is right, and you’re a good person, you might not win short-term all the time, and financial gains might not be there all the time, but ultimately, you can be pretty happy, and you can do some pretty good things in the world. Keep a positive outlook.

148

149
When I grew up I was a huge Michael Jordan fan. That’s not very unusual for people to like him, but I just liked reading his books, especially where he came from, getting cut from his high school team. I thought he was a good person, a good role model to look up to.
150
As an adult, I’ve always tried to be a good person my whole life, so I’ve made good friends, and I’ve always built great relationships and been friendly with people. I always think what you do to others will come to you, so that’s how I treat people.
151

167
