George Washington
Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

Hermes
From one Soul of the Universe are all Souls derived. . .Of these Souls there are many changes, some into a more fortunate estate, and some quite contrary. . .Not all human souls but only the pious ones are divine. Once separated from the body, and after the struggle to acquire piety, which consists in knowing God and injuring none, such a soul becomes all intelligence. The impious soul, however, punishes itself by seeking a human body to enter into, for no other body can receive a human soul it cannot enter the body of an animal devoid of reason. Divine law preserves the human soul from such infamy. . .The soul passeth from form to form and the mansions of her pilgrimage are manifold. Thou puttest off thy bodies as raiment and as vesture dost thou fold them up. Thou art from old, O Soul of Man yea, thou art from everlasting.

Will Rogers

Vince Lombardi
If you'll not settle for anything less than your best, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish in your lives.

French Proverb
Life is an onion and one peels it crying.

Haniel Long
So much of what is best in us is bound up in our love of family, that it remains the measure of our stability because it measures our sense of loyalty. All other pacts of love or fear derive from it and are modeled upon it.

George Moore
A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.

Arab Proverb
Examine what is said, not him who speaks.
= = = = = = = = = =
Lewis Carroll
For I do not believe God means us thus to divide life into two halves - to wear a grave face on Sunday, and to think it out-of-place to even so much as mention Him on a week-day. Do you think He cares to see only kneeling figures and to hear only tones of prayer - and that He does not also love to see the lambs leaping in the sunlight, and to hear the merry voices of the children, as they roll amoung the hay? Surely their innocent laughter is as sweet in His ears as the grandest anthem that ever rolled up from the dim religious light of some solemn cathedral?

Author Unknown
Excellence is best described as doing the right things right - selecting the most important things to be done and then accomplishing them 100% correctly.
= = = = = = = = = =
Julius Rosenwald
Early in my business career I learned the folly of worrying about anything. I have always worked as hard as I could, but when a thing went wrong and could not be righted, I dismissed it from my mind.
