Only so much of life do I know as I have lived.

You know, and I know, just how much we defy.

Scouting is not an abstruse or difficult science: rather it is a jolly game if you take it in the right light. In the same time it is educative, and (like Mercy) it is apt to benefit him that giveth as well as him that receives.

Voltaire (FrançoisMarie Arouet)

Faith is the substance of hope - of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.

Duane Chapman
