Iyanla Vanzant Quotes

If you are a card-carrying human being, chances are that you share the same fear as all other humans: the fear of losing love, respect and connection to others.

The reason socialism has failed around the world every time it's been tried is because people in socialist countries have looked at the United States and have said if they can have it that good, we can.
