• I got into a brawl one night in a saloon in Greenwich Village. Elia Kazan, a great director, saw me put out a couple of hecklers and figures there was some Big Daddy in me, just lyin' dormant. And out it came. People still do call me Big Daddy, but to me, inside, I'm no Big Daddy at all.

• Better world. Better life for everybody, every worker. Poor kids oughta be able to go anyplace their brains will take them. Not where Daddy or Mommy's pocketbooks can send them. Everybody oughta have health care, everybody oughta have some retirement security, every American. Every one. Everybody oughta have a decent good job. That's what I believe in, and that's what I fight every day to try to achieve.

• Thousands of stars in the night sky,
  And shells on the shore together,
  Hundreds of birds that go singing by,
  Especially in sunny weather.
  Millions of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
  Thousands of leaves in the fall,
  Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
  But only one father, that's all.
  Happy Birthday
  To the One and Only

• Walk a little slower, Dad
  Cos I am only small.
  I'm following in your footsteps,
  And I don't want to fall.
  Someday when I'm all grown up.
  You're what I want to be;
  Then I will have a little child,
  Who'll want to follow me.
  And I would want to lead just right,
  And know that I was true;
  So, walk a little slower, Dad,
  For I must follow you.
  A very very very Happy Birthday Dad

• My daddy was a carpenter that worked with the Jones boys, who are the most notorious in America. The black gangsters, you know, they were no joke. And he was their master carpenter. He used to build their homes, and all I saw when I was 11 years old were dead bodies and tommy guns and stogies, and backrooms, you know, Drexel Wine and Liquor, with the big piles of money underneath.

• The Bible talks about how God uses difficult situations to develop our character and get us stronger. The death of my father is probably the biggest thing that I ever faced. Daddy and I were best friends. But out of that darkness, out of that disappointment in my life, that's what God used to push me into another level of victory or another level of ministry that I never knew I had.

• I remember a very important lesson that my father gave me when I was twelve or thirteen. He said, "You know, today I welded a perfect seam and I signed my name to it." And I said, "But, Daddy, no one's going to see it!" And he said, "Yeah, but I know it's there." So when I was working in kitchens, I did good work.
