We love persons....Jacques Maritain

"We don't love qualities,
                    we love persons,
         sometimes by reason of their defects
                           as well as of their qualitites." 
                                                Jacques Maritain

Great perils... Victor Hugo

"Great perils have this beauty,
                   that they bring to light
                             the fraternity of strangers."
                                                  Victor Hugo

I Believe - Walls Cellar

    "I Believe...
          I believe in the sun....
                even when it is not shining.
         I believe in love...
                     even when feeling it not.
     I believe in God...
            even when God is silent."

Life isn't always fair

"There are certain things

that may never be fully understood

for life isn't always fair...

but it's still pretty darn good."

First Impressions

"Do not rely on first impressions
for things aren't always as they seem.
Sometimes the very smallest player
is the best one on the team."

Words are Permanent

"Words are permanent;

hearts cannot be unbroken

and saying "I'm sorry"

cannot retrieve angry words

that I have spoken."

Less is More

        "The phrase 'less is more'                            
                     is absolutely true...
          with too much of what you don't need,

      it's hard to find the things you do."

Success ...alone

"Success should not be measured

in what you will buy or own,

but in the pride you feel

in the person you're with...

when you are all alone."

opportunity....Walter P Chrysler

"The reason so many people

never get anywhere in life

is because when opportunity knocks,

they are out in the backyard

looking for four-leaf clovers."

                                                                       ~Walter P. Chrysler

get started

"You don't have to be great to get started,

but you have to get started to be great." Les Brown

difference...W Clement Stone

"There is little difference in people,

but that little difference,

makes a big difference.

The little difference is attitude.

The big difference

is whether it is positive or negative."

W Clement Stone

try....faith...believe.... Rich Devos

"The only thing that stands between a person
and what they want from life
is often the will to try it
and the faith to believe it's possible." 
Rich DeVos
