Aldous Huxley

Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Mathew

Paulo Coelho

I am prepared for the worst, but hope for the best.

Benjamin Disraeli

Change brings opportunity.

John Callahan

Herbert Hoover

Carl F. H. Henry

Ideas are the roots of creation.

Ernest Dimnet

Sir Winston Churchill
