“Walking uplifts the spirit. Breathe out the poisons of tension, stress, and worry; breathe in the power of God. Send forth little silent prayers of goodwill toward those you meet. Walk with a sense of being a part of a vast universe. Consider the thousands of miles of earth beneath your feet; think of the limitless expanse of space above your head. Walk in awe, wonder, and humility. Walk at all times of day. In the early morning when the world is just waking up. Late at night under the stars. Along a busy city street at noontime.”
Wilferd A. Peterson
“When we all walked in, you could feel their spirits being uplifted, like they felt very encouraged and happy that we were there. It was just real cool to see that. To be able to go back (to New Orleans), play a game there and be able to uplift them again, that's special.”
Kobe Bryant
“He said some nice things. I think it uplifted everybody's spirits.”
Brandon Stokley
“He came in and gave everybody a hug. Just seeing his face, I think it just uplifts everybody's spirits.”
Larry Tripplett
“I think it uplifts everybody's spirits. It's a tough situation, what he's having to deal with. But however long it took him to get the grieving process going, it was up to him. If something like that happened to me, I don't know what I would have done.”
“Once the implicit aim of biography was to uplift now it is to unveil.”
Mark Feeney
“We look to the heavens for help and uplift, but it is to the earth we are chained; it is from the earth that we must find our sustenance; it is on the earth that we must find solutions to the problems that promise to destroy all life here.”
