• If you're trying to be miserable, it's important you don't have any goals. No school goals, personal goals, family goals. Your only objective each day should be to inhale and exhale for sixteen hours before you go to bed again. Don't read anything informative, don't listen to anything useful, don't do anything productive. If you start achieving goals, you might start to feel a sense of excitement, then you might want to set another goal, and then your miserable mornings are through. To maintain your misery, the idea of crossing off your goals should never cross your mind.

• Si alguien me preguntara si lo más importante para un matrimonio es la capacidad de comunicación o la mansedumbre, respondería que la mansedumbre, sin duda alguna. Puedes ser un excelente comunicador pero no tener la humildad de preguntar: "¿Soy yo? Las habilidades de comunicación no sustituyen los atributos de Cristo. Como el Dr. Douglas Brinley ha observado, 'Sin perspectivas teológicas, los ejercicios seculares diseñados para mejorar nuestra relación y nuestras habilidades de comunicación (las herramientas comunes de los consejeros y libros matrimoniales) nunca obrarán ningún cambio permanente en el corazón de uno: ¡simplemente desarrollan luchadores más astutos y hábiles!
