"Maturity doesn't mean you stop fighting, you just change the things you fight for."
"النضج لا يعني أن تتوقف عن القتال، بل أن تغير الأشياء التي تقاتل من أجلها."
Carlos Wallace
"My Dad used to tell me not to wish my life away by praying it was Friday, or wishing for a day that was a ways off. Soon days will pass so fast you will pray for them to slow down. Nothing in life is promised. Each day is a valuable opportunity to play an important role in this world. Treat each moment like it's the performance of a lifetime; approach every show like it's your first, respect it as if you've invested years, appreciate it like it's your last."
"كان أبي يقول لي ألا أتمنى أن تمضي حياتي سريعًا بالدعاء أن يكون اليوم الجمعة، أو بتمني يوم لا يزال بعيدًا. فسرعان ما ستمر الأيام بسرعة فائقة لدرجة أنك ستتمنى أن تتباطأ. لا شيء في الحياة مضمون. كل يوم هو فرصة ثمينة لتلعب دورًا مهمًا في هذا العالم. عامل كل لحظة وكأنها أداء العمر؛ اقترب من كل عرض وكأنه الأول لك، احترمه وكأنك استثمرت فيه سنوات، وقدره وكأنه الأخير."
Carlos Wallace
"We need to get our minds right, because right now we are behaving as if we are out of our right minds."
"علينا أن نُقوّم أفكارنا ونُصحّح مسار عقولنا، لأننا في هذه اللحظة نتصرف وكأننا فقدنا صوابنا."
Carlos Wallace
"Pride is the problem. Everyone wants to be right so badly they overlook the "rights" of others."
"الكبرياء هو الداء. فكل امرئ يتوق إلى أن يكون على صواب لدرجة أنه يتغافل عن "حقوق" الآخرين."
Carlos Wallace
"Before we ask where the leaders are, we should look in a mirror and ask the person we see “Why are you not leading”?"
"قبل أن نسأل أين القادة، ينبغي لنا أن ننظر في المرآة ونسأل الشخص الذي نراه: "لماذا لا تقود أنت؟"
Carlos Wallace
"We are confusing making “progress” with eradicating the larger problem."
"نخلط بين إحراز ما نُسمّيه "تقدمًا" وبين اجتثاث المشكلة الجوهرية."
Carlos Wallace
"It's not the fact that some people disagree with the protests. That is as much a right as the protests themselves. It is the hateful, profane, condescending way some have expressed their discontent that baffles me. How do you criticize actions you've deemed disrespectful and divisive and an affront to civilized behavior with rhetoric to the same end? That's like the devil judging the Grim Reaper for harvesting souls."
"ليس الخلاف مع الاحتجاجات هو ما يثير دهشتي؛ فهذا حق مكفول لهم، تماماً كما الاحتجاجات نفسها حق. إن ما يذهلني حقاً هو الطريقة المفعمة بالكراهية، البذيئة، والمتعالية التي عبّر بها البعض عن سخطهم. كيف تنتقد أفعالاً وصفتها بأنها تفتقر إلى الاحترام، ومثيرة للفرقة، وتمثل إهانة للسلوك المتحضر، مستخدماً خطاباً لا يقل عنها سوءاً في غايته؟ هذا أشبه بالشيطان الذي يدين ملك الموت على حصده للأرواح."
Carlos Wallace
"There's "good" in all things. You just have to find it."
"في كل شيء "خير"، ما عليك سوى أن تبحث عنه."
Carlos Wallace
"Our dedication to charity guides our purpose. The love of laughter inspires our vision. The generous support of supporters, friends and fans along with the finest businesses in Houston and throughout America helps drive our mission. Thank you to those who generously donate to one or all of the charities Sol-Caritas supports."
Carlos Wallace
"My parents and grandparents did not tolerate idle thoughts or behavior. If the action did not have a purpose or lead you in a positive direction, their feeling was “why bother?” This is how I was built. This is why I refuse to fail."
Carlos Wallace
"Each day, speak as if someone may be listening in and act as if someone could be watching. Do not say it if you do not mean it or know it to be true. Do not do anything privately that would shame you publicly. Good judgment should not cease simply because you think no one will ever know. Everything performed in the darkness is always revealed in the light. The Universe has an uncanny way of laying your life bare. Make sure you can deal with what may eventually be revealed."
Carlos Wallace
"It’s one thing to have the respect of your peers in the business. Their opinions are not always verbalized but if you are doing the right thing you don’t need validation."
Carlos Wallace
"Some people applaud my no nonsense approach to life. Others say my methods are “extreme”. Where I’m headed and how I get there is between me and my God. So, if you don’t know where I’m going, how can you suggest I’m taking things too far?"
Carlos Wallace
"Military service is not just a vocation. It is a way of life, an attitude that you carry in your heart even after you are discharged."
Carlos Wallace
"Nothing in life is promised. Each day is a valuable opportunity to play an important role in this world. Treat each moment like it's the performance of a lifetime; approach every show like it's your first, respect it as if you've invested years, appreciate it like it's your last."

"A man enrich his community. A man teach and display leadership qualities for his children. A man by his presence is safety and security for his Queen. The best the thing a man can do for this world, his children and Queen is be a man."
Carlos Wallace
"Becoming accomplished at what you do is no easy task, nor is the goal reached in a day. The process is time consuming, requires dedication, innovative ideas, meticulous strategizing and can be quite tedious at times. For many, the ultimate objective is to challenge the status quo, change the game, chart unexplored territory, and set a new standard of excellence. Sometimes hitting those marks is its own reward. Seeing others apply your blueprint to construct their own path to success is even more fulfilling. Leaders are motivated by believers! Bask in the imitation of others. After all, it is the highest form of flattery!"
Carlos Wallace
"Following trends on social media will not lead to social consciousness."
Carlos Wallace
"Success is determined by how little time you have to worry whether others are criticizing you, while being too focused to address them if they are."
