Who is wise? He that learns from everyone. Who is powerful? He that governs his passions. Who is rich? He that is content. Who is that? Nobody. - Benjamin FranklinPolitics is more dangerous than war, for in war you are only killed once. - Winston ChurchillI am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true.

When I was young, I said to God, "God, tell me the mystery of the universe." But God answered, "That knowledge is reserved for me alone." So I said, "God, tell me the mystery of the peanut." Then God said, "Well George, that's more nearly your size." And he told me. Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses. Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough. Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough. Not only have I found that when I talk to the little flower or to the little peanut they will give up their secrets, but I have found that when I silently commune with people they give up their secrets also—if you love them enough. All my life I have risen regularly at four o'clock and have gone into the woods and talked to God. There He gives me my orders for the day. There is literally nothing that I ever asked to do, that I asked the blessed Creator to help me to do, that I have not been able to accomplish. |
