"There are good men and bad men of all nationalities, creeds and
colors; and if this world of ours is ever to become what we hope
some day it may become, it must be by the general recognition that
the man's heart and soul, the man's worth and actions, determine
his standing."
24th President
Theodore Roosevelt
Letter Oyster Bay, NY
September 1, 1903
"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life.
It comes to us at midnight very clean.
It is perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands
and hopes we've learned something from yesterday."
~John Wayne~
"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the
candle or the mirror that reflects it."
~Edith Wharton~
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of
comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
--Martin Luther King, Jr.
And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no
rainbow. --Jerry Chin
To dream anything that you want to dream,
that is the beauty of the human mind.
To do anything that you want to do
that is the strength of the human will.
To trust yourself, to test your limits,
that is the courage to succeed.
~ Bernard Edmonds ~
"Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Knowledge is limited.
Imagination encircles the world"
~Albert Einstein~
If you think you are beaten you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't;
If you want to win but think you can't;
It's almost a cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose you're lost;
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in a state of mind.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger and faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.
