Here is a compilation of some of my favorite, inspirational David quotes:


“If you always focus on what hasn’t worked out the way you wanted you miss out on seeing all those things that have.”

"Christmas music is good!"

"Life is good, God is good, you guys are great!"

"It's almost like without the darkness, we can't really appreciate the light."

"I know that seems like the scariest and hardest thing to do is taking that first risk and just saying, “I’m gonna do it!” It’s so easy to just look down that path and say oh well, that path’s too hard to take. I’m not going to take it. Oh well, so much for my dreams. Thank you! It’s like if you really have the desire and you feel like no, I want to do that, sometimes even if it is a hard path to take, even if it has those big hills and climbs and all those scary trees and you can get scratches, and you can get hurt sometimes. But I think that’s what makes us grow. That’s what makes us learn in our lives. So when we get to that end of the path we have all those bruises and cuts and you can see that we had a difficult time getting to where we were; but at the same time, you can say, you know what, this is proof that I went and I took that path, and this is proof that I did all I could and that I was willing to take that path even if it wasn’t the easiest path to take. I think in a way people admire you for that and people respect you and say you know what, that wasn’t the easiest thing for them to do but they went and I can see how many struggles they had and how many trials they had going and taking that path, but I really admire that. I think I’m going to take this path, too. I think I’m going to take that path even though it is not the easiest one. But sometimes the easiest path isn’t always the best one. I think if everything was easy in our lives we wouldn’t be able to enjoy life as much because when things are difficult I think it’s those hard things in life that make you appreciate your life so much more. The great things in life, you appreciate them because you have something to compare them to and contrast them to. It’s like wow look where I came from and look where I am now."

"Remember, just because you have something doesn't mean it will always be there. be grateful for what you have in life."

"If you’ve hit rock bottom the only way you can go is the other side of down now. There’s no more down to go. So you can only keep moving forward."

"The hard tings are what make you strong."

"I can tell you now, it's not your eye color that's giving off that energy that people can be drawn to. It's more of the light in your eyes that you carry with you."

"It's like when I try to do what's right, the Lord blesses me directly and also indirectly by blessing other people."

"I know sometimes it makes people feel like they have power and authority over something…bullying someone and degrading someone makes them feel better, makes them feel like ‘this person is lower than me and I’m going to show that to them,’ but I feel like we’re all on even ground. We all have our imperfections. We all have things that are going on. If someone looks differently or believes differently or acts differently…I feel there’s always something good about someone. There’s always something inside of someone. I usually like to talk to the people getting bullied. Usually these are the people that people sort of look past. There’s usually something about them, like a hidden gem. I know that sounds kind of cheesy. There’s always something about someone that people don’t know about and they’re usually really cool. And all you have to do is talk to them and ask them and say ‘how are you doing’ and ‘what kind of things are you interested in?’ There’s always a light inside of someone."

"So it’s like from moving from thinking 'What do I do?' to 'You know what! I’m just gonna keep on moving forward. I may not know exactly what’s gonna happen; but hey, life is good and you just have to keep staying positive.' If you keep that in perspective you’ll get where you’re supposed to.”

"Not everyone's going to like who you are, no matter what you do. Somebody's always going to have a problem with you."

"I feel like the point of life is to look at all the good things we have. The more you focus on that, that'll be more of your outcome.

"I'm not going to pretend to be somebody else just to humor society."



"You just take whatever life throws at you, and you just learn how to deal with it, even when you can. It's about pushing yourself and pushing past what you think are your limits.

"It's important to try to keep a positive attitude. It's not the easiest thing. I may not be able to keep up with everything but I try my best. You can look at the negative things and the things that are going wrong, but there are so many positive things, too. It's so important to just keep that hope because when you're hopeful about life, it'll affect the decisions you make and it'll affect how you'll choose to have your future turn out."


If anyone has any more feel free to comment! :)

EDIT: Found some more!

"No one can make you happy all the time. You simply have to learn it yourself."

"We shouldn't just accept our station in life and think that we cant change where we are at."

"Stay true to what I believe in at all times. Even if i don't feel like it. Even when it isn't popular or convenient."

"I think deep down we all know whats important in our lives. We just have to be honest enough with ourselves to face that truth."

"Without the struggle, we cant really appreciate the joy when it comes."

"Even though your essence doesn't change, the things you go through as a person do change. so I think the key in life is to always be able to hold onto your essence no matter what happens."

"Instead of feeling sorry for ourselves when the chips are down, we should take stock of the things that was actually feel happy and grateful about."

"If you always focus on the things that haven't worked out the way you wanted, you miss out on all the things that have"

"How I stay true always goes back to the simple things: happiness, giving, loving, and sharing."

"I think the only way to be truly happy and satisfied with yourself is to keep working and improving, because we are never perfect, and the only thing that really makes us feel accomplished n our lives is to keep growing and to progress."

"We never know what will be thrown at us, but it's up to each of us as to how we deal with whatever does come."

"Everyone should go on at least one 30 min. run, jog or walk this week. It's amazing how much it can freshen up your mind and body."

"Wasn't able to use internet for a bit. It's kinda nice not having it for a few days. Like a breath of air."

"Exercise makes you feel better. Don't need to say much more about that haha.
"


"You have to make mistakes, that's how you learn. That's how you appreciate when you don't make mistakes. Because if you lived perfectly, you wouldn't realize that what you were doing was the right way or made you feel accomplished because you have nothing to compare it to."

“I want people to be hopeful and know that they have the potential to be happy in life.”

"I think it's really important to be a role model for people because you will never know who's watching. I mean, you don't have to be in front of the camera, on tv in front of millions all the time to be a role model. You could be walking down the street and doing something like who knows what and people are watching you even if you don't realize it."

"It's so important to just say hi to people. Simple things because it means so much to them. And you don't know what it could do for them."
