| "What
is to give light must endure burning."

"Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid." - Basil King
"The glory of
friendship is not the outstretched hand, Nor the
kindly smile nor the joy of companionship it is the

discover that someone else believes in them and is
willing to trust them."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson. .
. .
"The government in
which I believe is that which is based on mere moral
sanction . . . the real law lives in the kindness of
our hearts. If our hearts are empty, no law or
political reform can fill them." - Leo
Tolstoy
. .
. .
"Life is not made up
of great sacrifices and duties but of little things
in which smiles and kindness given habitually are
what win and preserve the heart and secure comfort."
- Sir Humphry Davy
. . . .
"I destroy my enemies when I make them my friends." - Abraham Lincoln

More damage has neen done to
others by persons leading lives of quiet desperation, that is doing what
they felt they 'had' to do, than ever was done by persons freely doing
what they wanted to do. - Anonymous

"Justice, mercy, love and freedom are not the work of the gods or politicians, but the work of those who willingly risk seeing the world with open eyes - who do not turn away, but address what they see." - Robert Fulghum . . . .
"Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. It is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self, so therefore, trust the physician and drink his remedy in silence and tranquility." - Kahill Gibran . . . .
"If you focus on results, you will
never change. If you focus on change, you will get
results." - Jack Dixon
. . . .
"Common sense and a sense of humor
are the same thing moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just
common sense dancing." - William James

"The relationship between commitment
and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest
when it is not without doubt but in spite of
it." - Rollo May
"Meaning transforms all . . . Once what you
are living and what you are doing has meaning for you, it is irrelevant
whether you are happy or unhappy. You're content. You're not alone
in your spirit. You belong."
