Favorite saying

• "Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. Teddy Roosevelt "The best minds are not in government. If they were, business would hire them away." --- Ronald Reagan "A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe' a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free outselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." ---Albert Einstein Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1 Some look at things that are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were and ask why not? George Bernard Shaw I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who overcomes his enemies. Aristotle "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6 Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. Seneca I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it. Thomas Jefferson Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve. Dr. Napoleon Hill If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing was started with a dream and a mouse. Walt Disney"
