Knowledge Is Power

"My father used to say, 'Don't raise your voice.  
Improve your argument.'" 

~ Archbishop Desmond Tutu








Boldly Go

"I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage.  
When they are real, they are not unto glass thread or frostwork, 
but the solidest thing we know."  

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson




On Cultivating Friendships

"Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.  True friendship is a plant of slow growth and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation."
 
~ George Washington
 
 


Seize The Day!

"The pursuit of happiness is a matter of choice ... it is a positive attitude we choose to express. It is not a gift delivered to our door each morning, nor does it come through the window. And it is certain that our circumstances are not the things that make us joyful. If we wait for them to get just right, we will never laugh again."
